  • Security Unbound: Enacting Democratic Limits

    Jef HuysmansBOOKSecurity2014

    Security concerns have mushroomed. Increasingly numerous areas of life are governed by security policies and technologies. Security Unbound argues that when insecurities pervade how we relate to our neighbours, how we perceive international politics, how governments formulate policies, at stake is not our security but our democracy. Security is not in the first instance a right or value but a practice that challenges democratic institutions and a…

  • Critical Security Methods: New Frameworks for Analysis

    Claudia Aradau, Jef Huysmans et al.BOOKCritical Security Methods2014

    Critical Security Methods offers a new approach to research methods in critical security studies. It argues that methods are not simply tools to bridge the gap between security theory and security practice.

This recognises that the security practices we research are often methods in their own right, as forms of sur…

  • The politics of insecurity: Fear, migration, and asylum in the EU

    Jef HuysmansBOOKThe politics of insecurity2006

    In this volume, Jef Huysmans critically engages with theoretical developments in international relations and security studies to develop a fresh conceptual framework for studying security." "Huysmans argues that security policies and responses do not appear out of the blue, but are part of a continuous and gradual process, pre-structured by previous developments. Huysmans examines the processes of securitization and explores how an issue, on the …
