Vägen mot säkerhet - får alla gå med? En kritisk, feministisk analys av det traditionella säkerhetsbegreppet.

In this essay I analyze the concepts security and security policy from a critical, feministic point of view. The traditional way of thinking security is state-centred and narrow with its military oriented threatening pictures and solutions.
