This book explores changes in security governance in Europe from the 1990s, focusing on some of the most important consequences : the proliferation of ignored insecurities, including the increase of oncological diseases, environmental disasters, shadow economies reproducing neo-slavery and fiscal fraud, and the general damage to the res publica. What is the articulation of removal, reclamation and consequently the implementation of devices and the establishing of prevention practices ? Why are the majority of victims and also the control agency professionals seemingly resigned to these ignored insecurities ? Following more than 20 years of research in the area, the authors examine these questions and how the securitisation of society has been exacerbated. They argue that the primary cause of the increase in ignored insecurities is the consequence of the neoliberal turn in security governance. This book proposes an innovative approach to security governance, not only through a serious analysis of the balance of the costs and benefits, but also highlighting what is termed "ignored insecurities". The authors propose a review of the problems, showing that the governance of security is a crucial element of the contemporary political organisation of society. This impressive collection shows the limits of what governments refer to as "security". Much is left out of this governmental notion. And what it leaves out seems to have expanded as the significance of the term has grown.

On raconte ici l'histoire sociale des Scaldini, les immigrés italiens qui depuis la fin du xixe jusqu'au début du XXe siècle ont chauffé Paris, s'occupant des calorifères et chaudières à charbon des immeubles privés, des églises, y compris Notre-Dame, les HLM, les écoles, les hôpitaux, etc. C'était des montagnards qui comme les bougnats et charbonniers auvergnats ont assuré aux Parisiens le confort du chauffage 24 h/24, nuit et jour, y compris les jours de fête. Une histoire peu ou pas connue par les Parisiens dont on peut enfin découvrir les aspects passionnants.

This book is an examination of the effect of contemporary wars (such as the 'War on Terror') on civil life at a global level. Contemporary literature on war is mainly devoted to recent changes in the theory and practice of warfare, particular those in which terrorists or insurgents are involved (for example, the 'revolution in military affairs', 'small wars', and so on). On the other hand, today's research on security is focused, among other themes, on the effects of the war on terrorism, and on civil liberties and social control. This volume connects these two fields of research, showing how 'war' and 'security' tend to exchange targets and forms of action as well as personnel (for instance, the spreading use of private contractors in wars and of military experts in the 'struggle for security') in modern society. This shows how, contrary to Clausewitz's belief war should be conceived of as a "continuation of politics by other means", the opposite statement is also true: that politics, insofar as it concerns security, can be defined as the 'continuation of war by other means'. This book will be of much interest to students of critical security studies, war and conflict studies, terrorism studies, sociology and IR in general.
