Editorial Reviews

'Over ten years after 9/11, what was once called the "long war" against terrorism still has no end in sight; this collection of essays shows why. Its chapters provide a challenging analysis for anyone hoping to understand both the national strategies and the wider concepts and issues that have done most to shape the war's course.' Stephen Badsey, University of Wolverhampton, UK 'A decade after the 9/11 attacks, this book provides an important snapshot of the implications that have flowed from those events for some of the leading powers in the world as well as for international organisations such as NATO.' Wyn Rees, University of Nottingham, UK 'The book is ambitious in its aims and broad in its terrain, striving to investigate not only the range, continuity, significance, constraints and impact of international responses to the 9/11 events and their implications for international security, but also the domestic challenges of radicalisation, the role of NATO, the conundrums of international law, and the challenges of ’information warfare’... Overall this is a timely book, looking back over ten years of the War on Terror and reflecting on the diverse responses of states to US calls for assistance... the breadth of the book will ensure that it provides a useful source for researchers and students in the fields of security studies and international relations.'
