Access may be limited to ProQuest affiliated libraries N2 - Threats to human security do not necessarily take cataclysmic forms such as war or natural disaster, nor does human insecurity exist solely within a suspended living environment like refugee camps. This publication explores less obvious threats to human security and how people and communities face them.--Publisher's description UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/bacm-ebooks/detail.action?docID=829904 ER -
