It is now clear that real human security, defined by the Commission on Human Security as "protecting vital freedoms," can be achieved only if the full range of issues that underpin human security - including environmental integrity - are addressed. This ground-breaking book, authored by prominent international decisionmakers, tackles the global human security problem across the range of core issues. The authors identify the causes of insecurity, articulate the linkages between the different elements of human security and outline an agenda for engaging stakeholders from across the globe in building the foundations of genuine and lasting human security for all nations and all people.
