Inhaltsangabe

Global Development and Human Security explores the possibility of connecting all countries to the global economy while defusing the social tensions and managing the security risks that can result from exposure to a turbulent international system.
The authors took stock of current development practices through the prism of Sweden's Shared Responsibility bill, which addresses peace, security, opportunity, environmental conservation, human rights, and democracy. The resulting volume draws the implications of emerging threats to global peace and prosperity for development policy and practice. It seeks to build bridges of understanding between the development community and the security establishment by bringing together lessons of experience currently scattered in the literature. Each chapter is sell-contained and includes policy findings and recommendations.
Aimed at practitioners who need up-to-date knowledge about security and development issues, this book can also serve as an introductory text for security specialists with little knowledge of development or for development specialists with limited knowledge of security.
