Abstract

This is the first in a new series of biennial reports that aim to map social security coverage globally, to presenting various methods and approaches for assessing coverage, and to identifying gaps in coverage. Backed by much comparative statistical data, this first report takes a comprehensive look at how countries are investing in social security, how they are financing it, and how effective their approaches are. The report examines the ways selected international organizations (the EU, OECD and ADB) monitor social protection and the correlation of social security coverage and the ILO Decent

Abstract

This book compares and contrasts publicly espoused security concepts in the Nordic region, and explores the notion of societal security. Outside observers often assume that Nordic countries take similar approaches to the security and safety of their citizens. This book challenges that assumption and traces the evolution of societal security', and its broadly equivalent concepts, in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. The notion of societal security is deconstructed and analysed in terms of its different meanings and implications for each country, through both country- and issue-focused studies. Each chapter traces the evolution of key security concepts and related practices, allowing for a comparison of similarities and differences between these four countries. Using discourses and practices as evidence, this is the first book to explore how different Nordic nations have conceptualised domestic security over time. The findings will be valuable to scholars from across the geographical and theoretical spectrum, while highlighting how Nordic security discourses and practices may deviate from traditional assumptions about Nordic values. This book will be of much interest to students of security studies, Nordic politics and International Relations.

Abstract

Space is one of the fastest growing military, government and industry sectors. Because everything in today's world exists within or connected to cyberspace, there is a dire need to ensure cybersecurity is addressed in the burgeoning field of space operations. This revised and expanded edition will prime the reader with the knowledge needed to understand the unique challenges to space operations which affect the implementation of cybersecurity. Further, the reader will have foundational knowledge on what impacts cyber threats can have on space systems and how cybersecurity must rise to meet them. The author, who spent years in the United States Marine Corps, originally involved in satellite communications is now a seasoned cyber security practitioner who has provided cyber security vision and strategy to a large portfolio of systems and programs, many focused specifically in space. A published academic and experienced professional, he brings a practical, real-world and tempered approach to securing the final frontier. What You Will Learn Basic concepts of how different space vehicles operate in general. How such systems and their components integrate into cyberspace. A clear picture of the potential damage available via cyber-attacks to such systems. Basic efforts to mitigate such cyber threats will be presented through the various portions of space operations. Foundational issues at the intersection of the space and cyber domains Who This Book Is For This book is written for anyone curious about warfare in the era of cyber everything, those involved in cyber operations and cyber warfare, as well as security practitioners and policy or decision makers who are on the sending or receiving end of such activity.

Abstract

"Transecting Securityscapes draws on over a decade of fieldwork and participant observation by the co-authors from three conflicted contexts - Cambodia, the Kurdistan region of Iraq and Mozambique. The book pushes critical geopolitics, still often theory-led and discourse-bound, into terrains of the everyday, developing on a method of urban and territorial transects, combined with a range of other methods and modes of encounter. The three research sites enable comparative reflections on diversity and commonality in "securityscapes", studying both long-term networks and short-term circuits. Intersections between "security", power and political economy are examined in the contexts of empire, decolonization, revolution, Cold War and its aftermaths. The result is a book of wide interest; for scholarship on each of the research sites, for others developing qualitative methods in security studies, urban and political geography and for all analysts of conflict, violence and peace"--

Abstract

This book employs various theories of contemporary security studies to explore some of the most important and most common security issues in Central Europe at this time. Individual chapters of the book adhere mainly to European branches of critical and constructivist security studies,through which they look at some of the salient topics of Central European security politics. The distinction between internal and external security issues is employed throughout the book for analytical purposes. Under this framework, alliance building, security guarantees, “special relationships,” the relational politics of identity, and relations with major powers – documented in the book on the case of Latvia’s relations with United States – are examples of external security issues. Various pressing domestic security challenges, illustrated on the case of Hungarian far-right movements and their activities towards the Roma minority, are examples of internal security issues.
