Migration, Globalisation and Human Securitylooks at a range of security and human security issues related to the displacement of civilian populations and shows how the tenuous existence of migrants can lead to a myriad of human security threats. Providing major theoretical analyses of recent migration trends and in depth-case studies, this book shows that a redefinition of the notion of human security is now needed. 'The theoretical frame as well as the empirical illustrations raised by this volume provide a useful understanding of the new security discourse that has emerged since the end of the Cold War.'- Jorge V.
