Contemporary literature on war is mainly devoted to recent changes in the theory and practice of warfare, particularly 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.

How many dealers in these items have written furiously to him is unknown but soon, the auction houses will have empty shelves. This fellow has ruined a legion of pocket watches and cameras. His lawyer is going to make us take these down! We love to get semi-literate letters from Sid Flores, Shopping Mall lawyer. We sell these to winos for use as toilet paper. Here are more Rare and Precious items for your entertainment.
