New to this edition:
· Chapter 3 provides a new look on how liberal ideas underpin liberal internationalism and how these ideas have a long history of ordering international politics, but constantly find themselves contested, challenged, and in crisis.
· A new Chapter 13 on nonhuman security studies introduces students to this innovative approach to Security Studies, explaining the insecurities that arise for some humans, other species and non-sentient beings (rivers, mountains, etc) during the Anthropocene, an era in which human activity is having a fundamental impact on the planet's biosphere.
· A revised Chapter 15 on military security, tracing the use of force in achieving security, and the management of force, via alliances and arms control, in statecraft.
· Chapter 22 on terrorism has been reworked to provide in-depth explanation of the challenges of defining terrorism, the complications with counter-terrorism in preventing acts of terrorism from occurring before they happen, and the insights that Critical Terrorism Studies, feminism, and postcolonialism offer.
· A revised Chapter 24 on energy security, which traces the evolving concept of energy security, revealing the shifting nature of it as a geopolitical concern, and concluding by examining it from an individual rather than state perspective.
