Community, Citizenship and the 'War on Terror'

Security and Insecurity

Herausgegeben: Noxolo, Patricia; Huysmans, Jef

Beschreibung

In the context of the 'global war on terror', the issue of security has come to affect more and more intimate elements of people's everyday lives. This is the starting point of this interdisciplinary collection, which focuses on how the line between security and insecurity is negotiated through changing concepts of 'community' and 'citizenship'.
