Securing South East Asia: The Politics of Security Sector Reform

Mark Beeson, who authored articles on Asia Pacific institutions and regional security along with Alex J. Bellamy who has written books on Kosovo and Security Communities, has written this book which discusses a very important subject of civil military relations in socio-political context. The authors have reservations for the book being classified under civil military relations because it comprehensively discusses the issue under Security Sector Reforms (SSR). The book discusses South East Asia as an experimental lab where after the World War II different international actors and nationalist movements have created complex matrices of decolonisation process.
