In this edited book, several leading scholars address a number of security-related issues, all connected to one main research question:
What (in)security means from the perspective of people living in the Middle East and North Af- rica? In doing so, the contributors shed light on the contours of a stable and legitimate or- der that responds to the needs of the peoples in the region, on what history tells us about the ongoing debates on security and stability in the region, and, last but not least, on «hu- man security», which encompasses the dimen- sion of human rights, political rights and so- cial/economic security.
