This engaging introductory textbook explores both traditional and non-traditional approaches to security studies, offering an up-to-date discussion of major developments in the field. It is the first to examine the diverse range of security theories that have emerged in academic literature over the past fifteen years.

Dyson explains the convergence and divergence between British, French and German defence reforms in the post-Cold War era. He engages with cultural and realist theories and develops a neoclassical realist approach to change and stasis in defence policy, bringing new material to bear on the factors which have affected defence reforms.
