This is a very engaging book that raises a number of important, intriguing and incisive questions about the relationship between security and politics. It is a scholarly, detailed and rigorous analysis, making potentially complicated ideas and theoretical constructs intelligible. This volume is a valuable contribution and a must read for those interested in security studies.

Neal’s book, Security as Politics, is a valuable contribution to security studies scholarship. Although he discusses heady concepts, the book’s organization and Neal’s clear writing makes it accessible to a broad audience. I particularly recommend the book to practitioners and those who educate practitioners.

Security as Politics: Beyond the State of Exception is a “must read” for critical security scholars and practitioners alike.
