Synopsis

<em>Non-Traditional Security in Asia</em> examines the critical security challenges faced by states and societies in Asia including health, food, water, natural disasters, internal conflict, forced migration, energy, transnational crime, and cyber security. Through the development of a comprehensive analytical framework that establishes the key ingredients to policy evaluation, the editors draw on a wide variety of experts to collaborate in investigating these crucial issues. This inclusive framework ensures that all voices are heard including those oftentimes under-represented and marginalised in society to ensure that academic and policy debates are well-informed about the often complex and nuanced nature of these non-traditional security challenges.
