Military, Strategic & Security Studies

Authors of Conflict, Security and Development, Danielle Beswick and Paul Jackson, take a little time to tell us about the second edition and what makes their book stand out!

Wide-ranging and clearly-written, the authors deftly weave both theory and practice, and challenge us all to think more critically – and more carefully – about the consequences of international intervention.' -- Timothy Donais, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada
