Security Studies: The Basics<br />
Caroline Kennedy-Pipe, University of Hull, UK<br />
Series: The Basics<br />
Traditional studies of security focused on states, wars, <strong>and</strong><br />
the development of technology. Since the end of the Cold<br />
War it is now common to stress that human survival is also<br />
threatened by environmental damage, AIDS/HIV, water<br />
shortages, famine <strong>and</strong> plague. Exploring key questions such<br />
as: Should security be focused on the state or the individual?<br />
How has the nature of security changed since 9/11? To what<br />
extent will the future of security be about cyber-security?<br />
Featuring international case studies <strong>and</strong> suggestions for<br />
further reading this book is the ideal starting point for<br />
anyone interested in security studies.<br />

Weary Policeman<br />
American Power in an Age of Austerity<br />
Edited by Dana Allin <strong>and</strong> Erik Jones, both at The <strong>International</strong> Institute for<br />
Strategic Studies, UK<br />
Series: Adelphi series<br />
As another presidential election looms, America’s role in global affairs <strong>and</strong> security<br />
has emerged as one of the campaign’s great battle lines. These problems are<br />
compounded by the on-going financial crisis in Europe, which, together with the<br />
overstretch <strong>and</strong> fatigue from two wars, has sapped the strength of America’s chief<br />
allies. While it may urge its NATO partners to shoulder more of the security burden,<br />
the <strong>US</strong> finds them less willing <strong>and</strong> occasionally unable to share the strain. This<br />
Adelphi examines the myriad challenges America must confront if it is to uphold<br />
<strong>and</strong> spread its values.<br />
