Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict, Security, Macquarie University, course: Master of Policing Intelligence and Counter Terrorism, language: English, abstract: Globalisation is a term that is contested in academia from the perspective of semantics, theory, history and characteristics. The fact of the matter is that the world is converging in a myriad of aspects not limited to economics, politics and society. Reading the daily financial news will give guidance to the possible outcomes to the current European debt crisis, so intertwined and interdependent is the state of the global economy. This article explores insecurity as enabled and facilitated by globalisation from the broad contexts of economy, technology and terrorism.
