This work features up-to-date surveys on the pressing defense issues: theoretical, empirical and policy issues. It offers coverage of theoretical and empirical studies of terrorism. It includes contributions by the leading researchers in the field of defense economics. The second volume of the "Handbook of Defense Economics" addresses defense needs, practices, threats, and policies in the modern era of globalization. This new era concerns the enhanced cross-border flows of all kinds (e.g., capital and labor flows, revolutionary rhetoric, guerrillas and terrorists) including the spillovers of benefits and costs associated with public goods and transnational externalities. These ever-increasing flows mean that military armaments and armies are less able to keep out security threats, so novel defense and security barriers are needed to protect borders that are open to terrorists, pollutants, political upheavals and conflicts. This volume addresses the security challenges in this age of globalization, where conflicts involve novel tactics, new technologies, asymmetric warfare, different venues and frightening weapons. Volume 2 contains topics not covered in volume 1 - i.e., civil wars, It also revisits topics from volume 1 where there has been a significant advancement of knowledge.
