520 |a All human societies have to live with uncertainty, the challenge of which is particularly significant in world politics. Governments face dilemmas of interpretation and response about the motives and intentions of others, such that the accumulation of weapons can be understood by one set of decision-makers as a reasonable act of self-protection, but by others as threatening attack or coercion. From this security dilemma flows the pervasiveness of fear, the fragility of cooperation and the elusiveness of trust. While a clear assessment of the difficulties of cooperation and trust is essential to thinking realistically about security issues, this major new work shows that fatalism serves only to reproduce the fears and dynamics of an already dangerous world and points the way to more promising alternatives 
520 |a This major new contribution to the study of international politics provides comprehensive analysis of the concept of "security dilemma," the phrase used to describe mistrust and fear which is often thought to be the inevitable consequence of living in a world of sovereign states. By exploring theory and practice of security dilemma through the prisms of fear, cooperation and trust, it considers whether the security dilemma can be mitgated or even transcended analyzing a wide range of historical and contemporary cases--Publisher's description
