- This book is the product of a decade of research on the area on the ethics of securitization. By combining security studies and securitization theory with philosophy’s just war tradition, this book opens a new research agenda for philosophers, political scientists and international relations scholars. It engages academic literatures from several disciplines including development economics, criminology and law. The book is very ambitious in its theoretical scope, by developing the theory of Just Securitisation and painstakingly detailing its core elements. The argument relies on a large number of diverse examples engaging a variety of threats and actors.
