This timely book explores the diverse geographies of the war on terror. Drawing on recent advances in social theory, it offers original case studies and theoretical reflections on one of the central issues in contemporary geopolitics.
Drawing on critical geopolitics and related strands of social theory, this book combines new case studies with theoretical and methodological reflections on the geographical analysis of security and insecurity. It brings together a mixture of early career and more established scholars and interprets security and the war on terror across a number of domains, including: international law, religion, migration, development, diaspora, art, nature and social movements. At a time when powerful projects of globalization and security continue to extend their reach over an increasingly wide circle of people and places, the book demonstrates the relevance of critical geographical imaginations to an interrogation of the present.

Alan Ingram is Lecturer in Geography at University College London. Klaus Dodds is Professor of Geopolitics at Royal Holloway, University of London. He has published five books and in 2005 was awarded the Philip Leverhulme prize for his achievements in the fields of geopolitics and political geography.
