Demarcates the barriers and pathways to power security cooperation and provides an empirical analysis of threat perception among the world's major powers. Divided into three parts, this work uses a common analytical framework for the changing security agenda in Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Russian Federation, US, UK, and the EU.

'Global Security Governance is a distinct contribution to our understanding of international security cooperation in the contemporary world. Using a common framework, 12 excellent surveys examine national perceptions of security threats, institutional and instrumental preferences over policy, and the allocation of security resources. Integrating these essays, the editors insightfully probe the potentials and pitfalls for global and regional security governance. This thoughtful volume will be of interest to scholars of international relations and policy makers alike.' - David A. Lake, University of California, USA 'Global Security Governance makes an important and timely contribution to the ongoing debate about the nature and scope of security in the 21st century. The individual country-study chapters, disciplined by a common grid, represent an exemplary example of comparative foreign policy analysis. This empirically grounded and theoretically informed collection deserves a wide readership among practitioners and scholars alike.' - Antonio Missiroli, European Policy Centre,Brussels 'This book contributes a most valuable novel approach to security studies and significantly adds to our knowledge of contemporary security threats.' - Knud Erik Jørgensen, Århus University, Denmark
