Christopher S. Browning is Associate Professor of International
Security at the University of Warwick. He has published widely on
his core research interests of identity politics, critical
approaches to security and critical geopolitics and has a
particular interest in the politics of civilisations, the
performance of nationhood and the constitution of security
communities in the Nordic region, Europe and the West. His most
recent books include: Constructivism,
Narrative and Foreign Policy Analysis: A Case Study of Finland
(2008) and The Struggle for the West: A Divided and Contested
Legacy (2010).
`The book is accessible and well suited to courses in security
studies; it would also serve as a useful introduction for citizens
who would like to know more about the risks they face and the ways
in which their governments might respond to those risks.'
Ray Takeyh, Survival: Global Politics and Strategy
