From the publisher

Security Studies: An Applied Introduction offers a transformative tool to understand, analyse, and engage with the complexities of security in the modern world. This groundbreaking new text redefines the landscape of security studies with the following features:

  • Policy-Relevant: each chapter provides analysis of policy responses to empirical security issues. This practical approach offers a toolkit to assess and contribute to real-world policy discussions.
  • Empirical Application: vividly demonstrating the real-world relevance of Security Studies with online videos from leading security practitioners to show how theory informs practice.
  • Pedagogically Rich: comprehensive online resources and chapters features such as ′security beyond the real′ and hands-on exercises that critically assess real-world security responses and their policy implications that offer ways to apply theoretical concepts in a highly innovative way.
  • Innovative Structure: seamlessly integrating theoretical perspectives with empirical security concerns, this textbook offers a non-compartmentalised approach to theory and practice.
  • Hot Topics: placing contemporary, creative, emerging, and underexplored approaches and empirical topics at the forefront including cyber security, racism, and space security.

This is the perfect introduction for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying Security Studies and International or Global Security.

About the author

My research lies at the intersection of Critical Security/War Studies, International Political Sociology, and Postcolonialism, focussing on the multifaceted relationships between violence, subjectivity, and the construction of political authority. I am passionate about bridging research and teaching and I have delivered International Conflict Management courses to civilian and security officials in North Africa, the Middle East, South America, the Balkans, and the Caucasus, where I also conducted field research.

Working at the intersection of critical security studies, historical international relations, defence studies, andglobal health, Malte's research examines the relationship between violence and modernity.

Malte holds a PhD in International Relations from the University of Reading. With expertise in the history of war, mercenaries, remote warfare, Professional Military Education, and the medicalization of violence, Malte′s research has appeared in various peer-review journals including Journal of Global Security Studies, Critical Public Health, Alternatives: Global, Local Political, Globalizations, Defence Studies, Small Wars & Insurgencies and in several scholarly volumes. Malte is also the series editor of Routledge Private Security Studies and Sandhurst Trends in International Conflict.

Malte's PhD research was funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). Before coming to Glasgow in 2022, Malte was a senior lecturer at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and holds a Fellowship of the UK Research & Innovation Talent Peer Review College. He has practical experience in supporting military exercises, advising on military doctrine, and contributing to defence engagement activities of the MOD in conflict-affected societies.
