Abstract

The concept of governance is both ambiguous and controversial, with different analysis using the term in different ways. R.A.W. Rhodes, for example, has delineated six separate uses of the term “governance” with respect to the domestic political arena. In the realm of intentional politics it is equally possible to identify a range of closely related but separate meanings. There is not, in short, a simple definition or conceptualization of “governance” that would be commonly acceptable. That important qualification aside, it remains necessary for the purposes of this and related studies within the current project, to offer at the outset a tentative statement of what is meant by “governance” and more specifically “security governance.”
