This edited monograph aims to unpack the discourse surrounding global security from a range of multi-disciplinary perspectives. While various aspects of security such as great power politics, border security, cybersecurity, energy security, and terrorism often absorb the main focus of academic, political, economic and media attention, this book emphasises the significance of a holistic approach and multi-level analysis of security in order to attain a comprehensive insight and understanding. The book explores a range of perspectives, including ontological security, early childhood intervention, migration, cyber peace, the use of autonomous weapons and emerging technologies, as well as critically engaging security from feminist and multicultural perspectives. Overall, the collection intends to raise questions rather than offer answers to the complex and perpetual question of local and global security in all its forms. The contributors are primarily composed of a team of RMIT University researchers within the School of Global, Urban and Social Studies (GUSS), who come from a range of disciplinary backgrounds including, Anthropology, Political Science, Criminology and Social Work and International Studies. Through this collaboration, the researchers will highlight GUSS as leaders in this field. Moreover, the authors also have a wide range of experience, including early and mid-career research as well as senior scholars. This cooperation reinforces the formal and informal mentoring processes at GUSS. Global Security Reimagined: A Multi-Disciplinary Exploration is intended for academics, researchers and policymakers to further expand their thinking around security. It is also particularly aimed at undergraduate and post-graduate students studying security so they can gain a critical and holistic insight into (in)security from a variety of cross-disciplinary perspectives.
