Controlling Security in a Culture of Fear
註釋Who controls security in a culture of fear? The erosion of traditional safeguards in the quest for security raises questions about the meaning of justice, public protection, legal safeguards, and resilience. This book presents a cross-disciplinary exchange on the notion of fear and its influence on international criminal, economic, and security policy. The contributors chart new lines of research as they proffer a variety of perspectives on the problems and trends that are emerging from national and international responses to insecurity.
