Security Disarmed

In Security Disarmed, scholars, policy planners, and activists come together to critically examine the human cost of violence and viable alternatives to armed conflict. Arranged in four parts-alternative paradigms of security, cross-national militarization, militarism in the United States, and pedagogical and cultural concerns-this book evaluates and resists the worldwide crisis of militarization. The contributors voice a positive and encompassing vision of human security by analyzing the relationships among gender, race, and militarization. Book jacket.
