"This book analyses Japan's security policy after the Cold War and engages with the question of whether, since the Cold War ended, Japan has again become a global security player. The contributions to the book explore Japan's security policy by providing a detailed overview of the evolution of Japan's security policy after the Cold War, including the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty and the Senkaku/Daioyu Islands dispute. It also reveals the preeminent security concerns of contemporary Japan by delving into regional security issues such as the Layered Security of Okinawa, the increasing nuclear threat from North Korea, and the Taiwan Strait Crisis of 1995-6. The book culminates by discussing security in terms of the essential functions of energy, food, and human security, including an assessment of Japan's energy policy since World War II and an assessment of the impact food security on Japan's agriculture and trade. This book will be of interest to student and scholars of East Asian Politics, Security Studies and the International Relations of the Asia Pacific. It is also a valuable resource for diplomats and policymakers on Japan and East Asia"--

Professor Thomas relates security policy to the country's economy and technological capacity, discusses the capabilities of each of the armed services, and considers the issue of arms importation vs. indigenous production. He also explores the prospects for the future under Rajiv Gandhi. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Thomas Sowell said that "reality does not go away when it is ignored". The reality around Europe is changing rapidly, and EU foreign and security policy has to adapt to those changes. New security threats, power shifting from the Western world to Asia or from nation states to non-state actors, and the increasingly global character of all major challenges that Europe is to face in the next decade are forcing the EU to reform. This chapter sketches out a plan of reform around four topics: 1. Sources of European power; 2. Projection of European values; 3. European security: Comprehensive approach and strategic sovereignty; 4. Going beyond the neighbourhood – The EU as a truly global actor. These topics were chosen on the basis of public discussions during the Expert Forum held online by the European Liberal Forum in October 2020. The chapter is structured as follows. The first part briefly presents the current state of affairs, identifying major problems to be solved. The second part analyses three possible scenarios of EU foreign and security policy development—from sailing where the wind blows to executing fundamental changes in line with the liberal agenda. The final part outlines the set of policy recommendations for the preferred scenario of deep and far-reaching reforms.

In Bezug auf die Begriffsdefinition von Security Policy sind sich die Literatur sowie die verschiedenen Kriterienwerke (IT Grundschutzhandbuch, ISO/IEC 17799/BS 7799-2, COBIT) in der Informationssicherheit uneinig. Zum einen wird Security Policy als Sicherheitspolitik und zum anderen als Sicherheitsrichtlinie bezeichnet.

"This book provides a detailed analysis of the evolution of Russia's security policy. Based on extensive original research, including an analysis of official documents, political and military elite speeches, interviews, and reports, and considering the subject from the early twentieth century onwards, the book evaluates how far Russia's security policy is underpinned by "strategic asymmetry" - the acceptance by Russia of its inferior military position, and the pursuit of its strategic aims through the application of a variety of methods, military and non-military, including the manipulation of public opinion, the use of economic leverage and external security approaches - known as Russia's "hybrid war operations" - to gain the advantage over a militarily and economically superior adversary. The book discusses how Russia's security policy has been and is being applied in specific cases, including the present war in Ukraine, the Russian anti-satellite program and Russia's contemporary Afghan policy. The aim of the book is to explain how and why Russia uses different security strategies and methods using these three cases"--

Die sich allmählich entwickelnde europäische Cybersicherheitspolitik soll helfen, vereinbarte Mindeststandards in allen ihren Mitgliedstaaten umzusetzen, und zwar bei Prävention, Abwehrbereitschaft (resilience), Reaktion und internationaler Kooperation. Sie soll nationale Sicherheit befördern, jedoch ohne gegen demokratische Grundprinzipien zu verstoßen und die individuellen Freiheiten über Gebühr zu beschränken. Es ist nicht leicht, beides miteinander in Einklang zu bringen. Daher stellt sich die Frage nach den demokratiepolitischen Implikationen der europäischen Cyberpolitik. Wie verhalten sich deren institutionelle Strukturen und Instrumente zu den Anforderungen demokratischen Regierens?

Um dies zu klären, werden zunächst die wesentlichen Herausforderungen für das Bemühen um mehr Sicherheit im Internet skizziert. Daraufhin wird die institutionelle Architektur der globalen Cybersicherheitspolitik umrissen, und die wichtigsten Organisationsprinzipien europäischer Cyberpolitik werden identifiziert. Schließlich wird bewertet, inwieweit diese Architektur mit demokratischen Grundsätzen vereinbar ist, und es werden Vorschläge diskutiert, wie mehr Sicherheit im Internet herzustellen wäre, ohne jene Prinzipien zu verletzen.(Autorenreferat)

Comunicació presentada al SACMAT '20: The 25th ACM Symposium on Access Control Models and Technologies, celebrat del 10 al 12 de juny de 2020 a Barcelona, Espanya. ; There has been over the past decade a rapid change towards computational environments that are comprised of large and diverse sets of devices, many of them mobile, which can connect in flexible and context-dependent ways. Examples range from networks where we can have communications between powerful cloud centers, to the myriad of simple sensor devices on the IoT. As the management of these dynamic environments becomes ever more complex, we want to propose policy migrations as a methodology to simplify the management of security policies by re-utilizing and re-deploying existing policies as the systems change. We are interested in understanding the challenges raised answering the following question: given a security policy that is being enforced in a particular source computational device, what does it entail to migrate this policy to be enforced in a different target device? Because of the differences between devices and because these devices cannot be seen in isolation but in the context where they are deployed, the meaning of the policy enforced in the source device needs to be re-interpreted and implemented in the context of the target device. The aim of the paper is to present a formal framework to evaluate the appropriateness of the migration. ; This research was sponsored by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory and the U.K. Ministry of Defence under Agreement Number W911NF-16-3-0001.
