Security Blurs makes an important contribution to anthropological work on security. It introduces the notion of “security blurs” to analyse manifestations of security that are visible and identifi able, yet constructed and made up of a myriad and overlapping set of actors, roles, motivations, values, practices, ideas, materialities and power dynamics in their inception and performance. The chapters address the entanglements and overlaps between a variety of state and non-state security providers, from the police and the military to vigilantes, community organisations and private security companies. The contributors offer rich ethnographic studies of everyday security practices across a range of cultural contexts and reveal the impact on the lives of ordinary citizens. This book presents a new anthropological approach to security by explicitly addressing the overlap and entanglement of the practices and discourses of state and non-state security providers, and the associated forms of cooperation and confl ict that permit an analysis of these actors’ activities as increasingly “blurred”.

This book analyses a major change to the concept of security in Europe -- the blurring of the traditional divide between internal and external security. This is actually a dual blurring of the geographic (domestic-foreign) and bureaucratic (civilian-military) dimensions and has significant implications for security governance in the European Union. With the 2009 Stockholm Programme claiming that 'internal and external security are inseparable', this book examines the theoretical and policy-relevant implications of this changing discourse for the conceptualisation of security in Europe, EU security governance and the EU's role in international security. The book is woven together by the overarching theme of the European security continuum; specifically, engaging critically with the claim that security challenges identified by the EU increasingly transcend both geographic and bureaucratic boundaries. Four sub-themes will be used to unpack this central theme: (a) theories and concepts, (b) threats and challenges, (c) institutions and capabilities, and (d) politics and ethics. The central proposition is that the internal-external divide is being undermined by the nature of threats facing Europe, but not all threats blur these boundaries to the same degree. Hence, it is more accurate to conceptualise the challenges as being situated on a security continuum, ranging from 'transboundary' threats such as climate change to traditional threats of interstate conflict. However, the EU's ability to engage coherently with the complex challenges on this security continuum is significantly hampered by a final theme: the bureaucratic turf wars and civil-military tensions across its institutions and capabilities and between its member states. The book develops a conceptual framework - the European security continuum - to assess the extent to which the internal-external security divide is being dissolved. This is done through a detailed analysis of four key security issues (regional conflict, transnational organised crime, energy security, and cybersecurity) and an assessment of the practical and normative implications for EU security governance and the consequences for the type of international security actor the EU could and should become. This book will be of much interest to students of European Security, EU politics, and international relations.

Known as ‘the land of fire’, Azerbaijan’s politics are materially and ideologically shaped by energy. In the country, energy security emerges as a mix of coercion and control, requiring widespread military and law enforcement deployment. This book examines the extensive network of security professionals and the wide range of practices that have spread in Azerbaijan’s energy sector. It unpacks the interactions of state, supra‐state, and private security organizations and argues that energy security has enabled and normalized a coercive way of exercising power. This study shows that oppressive energy security practices lead to multiple forms of abuse and poor energy policies.

This book explores the conundrum that political fortune is dependent both on social order and big, constitutive crime. An act of outrageous harm depends on rules and protocols of crime scene discovery and forensic recovery, but political authorities review events for a social agenda, so that crime is designated according to the relative absence or presence of politics. In investigating this problem, the book introduces the concepts ‘intelligence crime’ and ‘critical forensics.’ It also reviews as an exemplar of this phenomenon ‘apex crime,’ a watershed event involving government in the support of a contested political and social order and its primary opponent as the obvious offender, which is then subject to a confirmation bias. Chapters feature case study analysis of a selection of familiar, high profile crimes in which the motives and actions of security or intelligence actors are considered as blurred or smeared depending on their interconnection in transactional political events, or according to friend/enemy status.

This clear and concise text offers a comprehensive comparison of national, international, and human security concepts and policies. Laura Neack argues that security remains elusive because of a centuries-old ethic insisting that states are the primary and most important international actors, can rely ultimately only on themselves for protection, and must keep all options on the table for national security. The author compellingly demonstrates how a state-first security ethic ultimately fails to secure states, the international community and—most important—human beings. Although security as a concept can be widened to include almost any aspect of existence, Neack focuses especially on security from physical violence, beginning with efforts by states to defend themselves against violent attack. She explores such topics as the internal and external dimensions of security, terrorism, and defending the homeland; threat perception and responses; preemptive and preventive wars; and other military interventions. Next, Neack examines efforts over the past century to protect states through the construction of the United Nations international security system and how collective security, peacekeeping, and peace enforcement have been used in that system. Throughout, Neack shows that human security has only mattered in terms of servicing the state's security needs, a critique she takes up directly in the final chapters. A range of short and extended case studies are offered to illustrate the conceptual materials and policy debates over security. In this state-first world, we only can choose between degrees of insecurity; true security remains elusive.

First published in 2004 in the immediate wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks, this is an accessible commentary intended to provoke thought and debate on the topic of terrorism. In a collection of challenging essays, questions consider the causes of terrorism and why post-modern terrorism is different. The essays are divided into three key sections, first investigating the civilizational roots and dimensions of contemporary terrorism, next examining the Bush administration’s approach, and finally, considering the complex and changing relationship between fear and freedom. Written by a leading scholar in Middle East and Asian Studies, this comprehensive reissue will be of particular value to students of international relations and terrorism studies, as well as the more general reader with an interest in the global issues faced in the age of contemporary terrorism.
