Download or read book Reordering Security written by Ian Loader and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional security distinctions are being rapidly eroded. Lines drawn between war and crime are blurring with fateful consequences for divisions between militaries and police forces. The assumption that security should be a publicly provided good has been challenged by private security providers, both domestic and international. Security is no longer (if it ever was) divided between what goes on inside one state and what occurs between states. However, our disciplinary tools for examining these security challenges remain resolutely focused on either the domestic or the international. This book makes one of the first attempts to examine security from both perspectives, bringing together, and into much needed conversation, the fields of criminology and international relations. This book was originally published as a special issue of Global Crime.
Book Synopsis Humanitarian NGOs, (In)Security and Identity by : Andrea Schneiker
Download or read book Humanitarian NGOs, (In)Security and Identity written by Andrea Schneiker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly humanitarian NGOs operate in the context of armed conflicts where the security risks are higher than in contexts of natural disaster. Working in Afghanistan, Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan, Pakistan and Sri Lanka is particularly dangerous for humanitarians. This existential threat affects the physical existence of aid workers and the implementation of humanitarian programs, and the core beliefs of humanitarians and the underlying principles of humanitarian action. For NGOs it is difficult to accept that they are attacked despite their good intentions, sometimes even by the very communities they seek to help. For these reasons, humanitarian NGOs have to change their approaches to security by not only adapting their policies, procedures and structures to the changing environment, but also reviewing the underlying principles of their work. This book contributes to debates by demonstrating how issues of (in)security affect humanitarian NGOs and the humanitarian identity, situating the structural changes within the humanitarian NGO community in the context of conflict aid governance and explains how non-state actors establish their own governance structures, independent from state-sponsored solutions, and contributes to the emerging literature on the redefinition of the concept of epistemic communities.

Book Synopsis The Market for Force by : Deborah D. Avant
Download or read book The Market for Force written by Deborah D. Avant and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-25 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legitimate use of force is generally presumed to be the realm of the state. However, the flourishing role of the private sector in security over the last twenty years has brought this into question. In this book Deborah Avant examines the privatization of security and its impact on the control of force. She describes the growth of private security companies, explains how the industry works, and describes its range of customers – including states, non-government organisations and commercial transnational corporations. She charts the inevitable trade-offs that the market for force imposes on the states, firms and people wishing to control it, suggests a new way to think about the control of force, and offers a model of institutional analysis that draws on both economic and sociological reasoning. The book contains case studies drawn from the US and Europe as well as Africa and the Middle East.

Book Synopsis Serving Jesus with Integrity by : Dwight P. Baker
Download or read book Serving Jesus with Integrity written by Dwight P. Baker and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word “ethics” carries an aura of countervailing views, overlapping claims, uncertain footing, and seductive attractions. Some issues are as clear as the horizontal versus vertical axes in Sawai Chinnawong’s striking painting, Joseph and Potiphar’s Wife, that graces the cover of this book. At the same time—because we are involved, because our interests, our inclinations, our plans and relationships are at stake—the issues that engage missionary practitioners can be frustratingly labyrinthine, curling endlessly back on themselves. Evangelical missionaries and mission agencies are concerned about personal morality—and rightly so. But as the chapters in this volume attest, evangelical mission’s ethical engagement extends far beyond simply avoiding compromising sexual situations and not absconding with the finances. How should we talk about others’ beliefs and practices to ourselves? To them? How should we represent ourselves to others? What role does tolerance for ambiguity play in missionaries’ mental preparation? How should accountability be structured in intercultural partnerships? Are there ways to enable organizational justice to flourish in mission institutions? What might integrity in short-term mission outreach look like? How does care for creation relate to mission? What role can a code of ethics for missionary practice play? Limited and fallible and marred by the fall, we need both guidance and admonition—and deep reflection on the conduct of evangelical mission such as is provided in this volume—so that we may serve Jesus with true integrity.

Book Synopsis Humanitarianism, War, and Politics by : Peter J. Hoffman
Download or read book Humanitarianism, War, and Politics written by Peter J. Hoffman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is humanitarianism? This authoritative book provides a comprehensive analysis of the original idea and its evolution, exploring its triangulation with war and politics. Peter J. Hoffman and Thomas G. Weiss trace the origins of humanitarianism, its social movement, and the institutions (international humanitarian law) and organizations (providers of assistance and protection) that comprise it. They consider the international humanitarian system’s ability to regulate the conduct of war, to improve the wellbeing of its victims, and to prosecute war criminals. Probing the profound changes in the culture and capacities that underpin the sector and alter the meaning of humanitarianism, they assess the reinventions that constitute “revolutions in humanitarian affairs.” The book begins with traditions and perspectives—ranging from classic international relations approaches to “Critical Humanitarian Studies” —and reviews seminal wartime emergencies and the creation and development of humanitarian agencies in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The authors then examine the rise of “new humanitarianisms” after the Cold War’s end and contemporary cases after 9/11. The authors continue by unpacking the most recent “revolutions”—the International Criminal Court and the “Responsibility to Protect”—as well as such core challenges as displacement camps, infectious diseases, eco-refugees, and marketization. They conclude by evaluating the contemporary system and the prospects for further transformations, identifying scholarly puzzles and the acute operational problems faced by practitioners.

Book Synopsis Different Dimensions Of Gender Security by : DR. ANDREY SHASTRI
Download or read book Different Dimensions Of Gender Security written by DR. ANDREY SHASTRI and published by INTERDISCIPLINARY INSTITUTE OF HUMAN SECURITY & GOVERNANCE. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we say the term ‘Gender Security’, people generally think about ‘women security’. But actually, it can encompass all kind of insecurity issues of human beings, and can talk about transgender vulnerability, child insecurity, old age problems and other human security issues like health, income and education. Gender security should not be a purely feminist issue to be discussed. This book, Different Dimensions of Gender Security tries to see the vulnerabilities of mankind through gendered lenses. The topics covered here are Gender Security and Law; Gender Security and Governance; Gender Security & Labour Force; Gender Security and Sustainable Development; Global Agencies for Gender Security; Gender Security in Domestic Sphere; Child Security Threats: Recent Trends and Gender Security and Pandemic: Recent Trends. In the twenty-three articles, authors have discussed this issue vividly. I really thank all the authors from India, Bangladesh and Nepal for discussing different dimensions of gender security from South Asian perspective. The goal of this Book is to improve the standards of the international community of academicians, researchers, scholars, and scientists by exposing them to the latest trends, developments, and challenges in the field. I hope that this collection of essays can become a benchmark for the future as well as spur new research agendas and projects that will put the region into a much-needed conversation on the different dimensions of gender security in contemporary world. The volume is essential reading for social scientists, bureaucrats and non-governmental political activists interested in gender security. It will also appeal to public policy analysts and scholars who have yet to adopt the contribution of critical security and development studies in the analysis of different dimensions of gender security.
