The authors in this volume explore a series
of human insecurities that are created or exacerbated by
new patterns of global interactions. The problems examined
include migration, natural disasters, contagious diseases,
and environmental change. All of the authors address the
policy frameworks, national and international, that shape
possible responses to the fresh threats to human security.
Many of the challenges described here are already high on
the agenda of the international community. By adding a human
security dimension to their analysis, these authors provide
new insight into attempts to reduce our vulnerability to
global changes.
