Summary
Border-spanning, 'non-traditional' security problems - pandemics, climate change and organised crime - pervade the global agenda. This is the first book that systematically explains how such problems are governed. Theoretically innovative and empirically rich, with in-depth Asian case studies, it will interest scholars and practitioners of international relations, security, and global governance.
