Terrorism, globalisation and mass migration have shaped our perceptions of security. Using a number of practical examples, this volume of essays considers whether the concept of 'human security' helps to address the multiple challenges faced by non-citizens today, including displacement, mass irregular migration, poverty, climate change, discrimination and counter-terrorism measures.
The past decades have seen enormous changes in our perceptions of ''security'', the causes of insecurity and the measures adopted to address them. Threats of terrorism and the impacts of globalisation and mass migration have shaped our identities, politics and world views. This volume of essays analyses these shifts in thinking and, in particular, critically engages with the concept of ''human security'' from legal, international relations and human rights perspectives. Contributors consider the special circumstances of non-citizens, such as refugees, migrants, and displaced and stateless persons, and assess whether, conceptually and practically, ''human security'' helps to address the multiple challenges they face.
