Palgrave Studies in Global Security

The Palgrave Studies in Global Security welcomes thought-provoking monographs and inclusive edited volumes that seek to unpack and elucidate the key global security challenges facing the world as we look ahead to the second half of the 21st century. In bringing a deeper understanding of core global security questions into contention with ongoing theoretical debates between critical and traditional approaches, series monographs include innovative analyses pertaining to conflict, disruptive emerging technologies (AI, cyber, lethal autonomous weapons, UAVs), great power politics (US, Russia, China), global terrorism, nuclear proliferation, various dimensions of security including resource, health, environmental, gender, and evolving domains and modalities of military conflict. Traditional state-centric models of security will be compared and contrasted with critical conceptions that emerged after the Cold War, including human security, constructivism, post-structuralism, critical theory, gender approaches, post-colonialism and securitization. Overall, the series seeks to rethink the different positions in the discourse, the applicable theoretical debates, and assess the varied responses to new and ongoing oscillations in global security.
