Chris Abbott, Paul Rogers and John Sloboda, April 2007 (Rider) Is international terrorism really the single greatest threat to world security?
Since the 9/11 attacks, many Western governments assume terrorism to be the greatest threat we face. In response, their dangerous policies attempt to maintain control and keep the status quo by using overwhelming military force. This important book shows why this approach has been such a failure, and how it distracts us from other, much greater, threats:
· Climate change
· Competition over resources
· Marginalisation of the majority world
· Global militarisation
· Climate change
· Competition over resources

Unless urgent, coordinated action is taken in the next 5-10 years on all these issues it will be almost impossible to avoid the earth becoming a highly unstable place by the middle years of this century.
