Mullard (public and social policy, U. of Hull, UK) and Cole (criminology, U. of Hull) present 15 papers exploring links among globalization, citizenship, and the "War on Terror" from a variety of academic perspectives, including sociology, criminology, political science, and development studies. Topics include the "War on Terror" as it relates to such themes as the drive for neoliberal hegemony; discourse of good versus evil; Bush's agenda for the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund; application of the work of Norbert Elias in the case of suicide bombers; the global expansion of the use of surveillance technology; the cultivation of fear and increasingly pervasive state regulation of everyday life; "anti-globalization" social movements; a de-politicized mode of citizenship in the United States and the United Kingdom; the state of poverty and citizenship in developing countries; and impact on definitions of citizenship.
