Towards Sustainable Security: Alternatives to the War on Terror

Zusatztext

The Iraq War shows no sign of ending, NATO is progressively more mired in conflict in Afghanistan, and the al-Qaida movement has established safe havens in western Pakistan while being seen once again as a major threat.<br><br> In light of this, the new Oxford Research Group international security report questions current policies and argues for the adoption of sustainable security as the underlying approach.<br><br> Tackling events in chronological order over the key 2006-07 period, the report offers a clear and compelling account of a 'war on terror' that has gone wrong in every major respect and is in urgent need of a comprehensive re-thinking of the entire outlook.<br><br> Comments on earlier editions of the Oxford Research Group International Security Report:<br> "Incisive, elegant, profound: if you want to understand what happened and why, you should start here." GEORGE MONBIOT<br> "Paul Rogers is a secular prophet for our trouble age. This analysis should be required reading in the Pentagon." DAVID LLOYN, BBC<br> "Paul Rogers has proved himself, time and again, to be a dispassionate analyst of events in Iraq this is a must-read." TOM WALKER, SUNDAY TIMES
