englischSince the late 1980s, the rogue state concept has emerged as a central motive of U.S. security policy and has been under intense debate by policy-makers and academics. The book breaks new ground in this discussion by approaching the rogue state concept from a moderate constructivist perspective.

In addition to analyzing how U.S. decision-makers have come to see a group of states as aggressive, risk-prone or even irrational outsiders to the contemporary international system, the book also devotes considerable attention to the threat perceptions of states that have been stigmatized with the rogue state label.
