> This book is an examination of the effect of contemporary wars (such as the 'War on Terror')
> on civil life at a global level. Contemporary literature on war is mainly devoted to recent changes in the theory and
> practice of warfare, particular those in which terrorists or insurgents are involved (for
> example, the 'revolution in military affairs', 'small wars', and so on). On the other hand, today's research on
> security is focused, among other themes, on the effects of the war on terrorism, and on civil liberties and
> social control. This volume connects these two fields of research, showing how 'war' and 'security' tend to
> exchange targets and forms of action as well as personnel (for instance, the spreading use of private
> contractors in wars and of military experts in the 'struggle for security') in modern society. This shows how,
> contrary to Clausewitz's belief war should be conceived of as a "continuation of politics by other means", the
> opposite statement is also true: that politics, insofar as it concerns security, can be defined as the
> 'continuation of war by other means'.
> This book will be of much interest to students of critical security studies, war and conflict studies, terrorism
> studies, sociology and IR in general.
