Abstract
Book Review: Crisis and ontological insecurity – Serbia’s anxiety over Kosovo’s secession
Highlights
Security is one of the most important facets of human existence, on a collective and individual level
By exploring the capacity of nation states to be ontological security seekers, the book makes two important contributions to the ontological security scholarship. It builds an argument about divergence between ontological security and ontological insecurity, which arises when the sense of collective identity is fractured (p. 43)
The second contribution made to OTS concerns the aspect of material environment as a source of ontological security in world politics, which is elevated to become an important source for anchoring the state’s collective identity narrative
