Insurance is a central, if until now ignored, instrument of war in the modern period. Ever since the eighteenth century, interaction between governments and insurers in Western countries has materialised in the form of war risk schemes that have contributed to the waging of war and the preservation of peace. The operation of those schemes has given rise to a curious, if not innocent, association between practices of statehood and practices of risk, which are theorised here under the label of 'insurantial sovereignty'.
This book is the second of a trilogy that analyses how concepts and practices of power, risk and security materialise in the form of insurance as a central instrument of governance in the liberal world.
Luis Lobo-Guerrero is Senior Lecturer in International Relations at Keele University and has been Visiting Research Fellow at the Department of War Studies, King's College London. He is the author of Insuring Security: Biopolitics, Security and Risk.
