Abstract

In Supreme emergency, an ex-Trident submarine captain considers the evolution of UK nuclear deterrence policy and the implications of a previously unacknowledged aversion to military strategies that threaten civilian casualties. Drawing on extensive archival research, the book provides a unique synthesis of the factors affecting British nuclear policy decision-making and draws parallels between government debates about reprisals for First World War zeppelin raids on London, the strategic bombing raids of the Second World War and the evolution of the UK nuclear deterrent. It concludes that among all the technical factors, an aversion to being seen to condone civilian casualties has inhibited government engagement with the public on deterrence strategy since 1915.

Abstract

Architectures of survival is an original and innovative work of history that investigates the relationship between air war and urbanism in modern Britain. It asks how the development of airpower and the targeting of cities influenced perceptions of urban spaces and visions of urban futures from the interwar period into the Cold War, highlighting the importance of war and the anticipation of war in modern urban history. Airpower created a permanent threat to cities and civilians, and this book considers how architects, planners and government officials reframed bombing as an ongoing urban problem, rather than one contingent to a particular conflict. It draws on archival material from local and national government, architectural and town planning journals and cultural texts, to demonstrate how cities were recast as targets, and planning for defence and planning for development became increasingly entangled.

Abstract

The Blitz Companion offers a unique overview of a century of aerial warfare, its impact on cities and the people who lived in them. It tells the story of aerial warfare from the earliest bombing raids and in World War 1 through to the London Blitz and Allied bombings of Europe and Japan. These are compared with more recent American air campaigns over Cambodia and Vietnam in the 1960s and 1970s, the NATO bombings during the Balkan Wars of the 1990s and subsequent bombings in the aftermath of 9/11. Beginning with the premonitions and predictions of air warfare and its terrible consequences, the book focuses on air raids precautions, evacuation and preparations for total war, and resilience, both of citizens and of cities. The legacies of air raids, from reconstruction to commemoration, are also discussed. While a key theme of the book is the futility of many air campaigns, care is taken to situate them in their historical context. The Blitz Companion also includes a guide to documentary and visual resources for students and general readers. Uniquely accessible, comparative and broad in scope this book draws key conclusions about civilian experience in the twentieth century and what these might mean for military engagement and civil reconstruction processes once conflicts have been resolved.

Abstract

How could you and your family survive a nuclear war? From 1945 to 1963, the Canadian government developed civil defence plans to save lives in bombed cities, evacuate target areas, and encouraged the public to build basement fallout shelters. By the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the civil defence program was widely mocked, and the public was still vastly unprepared for nuclear war. Give Me Shelter features recently released documents detailing Canada's nuclear survival plans. Andrew Burtch reveals how, through public appeals, the department urged citizens to assume responsibility for disaster preparation, a tactic that ultimately failed. An expos� of the challenges of educating the public on the threat of nuclear annihilation, this book illuminates Canada's Cold War home front like never before.

Abstract

In een lokaal en geïntegreerd veiligheidsbeleid is de inbreng van de burger van groot belang. Die wordt verondersteld te leiden tot een verbeterde dienstverlening en een toename van het vertrouwen in de overheid. Burgerparticipatie moet echter op zo'n manier worden vormgegeven, dat tegemoet wordt gekomen aan de noden van alle betrokken partijen. Om succesvol te zijn moet burgerparticipatie dus aan specifieke voorwaarden voldoen.Maar wat zijn die voorwaarden? En op welke manier worden burgers betrokken in het uitwerken van lokaal veiligheidsbeleid? Om een antwoord te formuleren op deze vragen inventariseerden en analyseerden de auteurs verscheidene buurtparticipatieprojecten uit binnen- en buitenland (buurtinformatienetwerken, politiecafés, wijkbabbels, verkennende wandelingen, ...).

Abstract

In de vorige cahiers werden heel wat aspecten behandeld inzake integrale veiligheid, maar steeds vanuit nationaal perspectief. Wij vonden de tijd rijp om nu integrale veiligheid eens te benaderen binnen een internationale en Europese context.Hiervoor hebben we twee redenen. De eerste reden is dat als gevolg van het in werking treden van het 'Verdrag van Lissabon' en het bijhorende 'Stockholmprogramma' (1) een nieuwe periode is aangebroken voor de samenwerking binnen de Europese Unie (EU), zowel voor de politiediensten, als voor de administratieve en gerechtelijke autoriteiten. Waar criminelen grensoverschrijdend werken, mag de overheid niet achter de feiten aanhollen. Samenwerken is dus de boodschap. Een tweede reden - de belangrijkste - is dat België vanaf 1 juli 2010 het voorzitterschap waarneemt van de EU en dit thema nu meer dan ooit actueel is.Wij wisten op voorhand dat dit geen gemakkelijke opdracht zou zijn, maar de praktijk heeft uitgewezen dat het nog moeilijker was dan oorspronkelijk gedacht.Enerzijds is er een inhoudelijke reden: vermits in nationale context de idee van integrale veiligheid vaak nog een containerbegrip is, is dit in internationale en/of Europese context zeker het geval. Anderzijds zijn er een aantal praktische redenen, zoals een aantal aangezochte auteurs, die uiteindelijk afgehaakt hebben en de ontslagnemende regering. Zo was het bijvoorbeeld initieel de bedoeling rond dit cahier ook een internationaal colloquium te organiseren met medewerking van het kabinet van de minister van Binnenlandse Zaken en de Federale Overheidsdienst (FOD) Binnenlandse Zaken.Wij hebben ons in dit cahier strikt genomen beperkt tot het politionele luik - het gaat immers over integrale veiligheid -, maar dit kan nooit los gezien worden van justitie.
