Global Security research integrates theory and policy to analyze the most pressing threats and significant vulnerabilities of global security. The prevention of violence, the mitigation of war, and the construction of peace constitute the research area's major concerns. Critical security issues are investigated not only as conflicts among states but as effects of new global actors, transborder flows, and complex networks.
