This book addresses one of the most pressing yet insufficiently explored questions to emerge from the global health crisis: how a pandemic has challenged established security paradigms and forced a reconsideration of the boundaries between public health, governance, vulnerability, and political order.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding on Critical Security Studies, the volume interrogates the limits of dominant state-centric and neorealist approaches, while revisiting the broader intellectual legacy opened up by the concept of human security since the 1994 UNDP Report. Rather than treating the pandemic as a temporary disruption, the contributors approach it as a critical moment that exposes the conceptual and political inadequacies of conventional security thinking. Through an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective, the book examines how security agendas and public policy responses have evolved in Spain and in other contexts, including Portugal, Italy, Argentina, and Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBy combining theoretical reflection with empirical analysis, this volume makes a distinctive contribution to the study of security in the post-pandemic era. It will be of interest to scholars, students, and policy practitioners seeking to understand how COVID-19 has reconfigured both the language of security and the policy frameworks through which contemporary societies respond to large-scale threats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOscar Mateos\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of International Relations and researcher at GLOBALCODES, Blanquerna School of Communication and International Relations, Ramon Llull University, Barcelona, Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSergio Caballero\u003c\/strong\u003e is University professor, Director of the Master in IR and Business Diplomacy and Director of the Chair UNESCO at the University of Deusto, Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e04 September 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFundació Blanquerna\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032273277\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e304\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Fundació Blanquerna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47722609934476,"sku":"9783032273277","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032273277.jpg?v=1781089269","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032273277","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
