In a post-Cold War world of political unease and economic crisis, processes of securitisation are transforming nation-states, their citizens and non-citizens in profound ways. This book shows how contemporary Europe is now home to a vast security industry which uses biometric identification systems, CCTV and quasi-military techniques to police migrants and disadvantaged neighbourhoods. This is the first collection of anthropological studies of security with a particular but not exclusive emphasis on Europe. The Anthropology of Security draws together studies on the lived experiences of security and policing from the perspective of those most affected in their everyday lives. The anthropological perspectives in this volume stretch from the frontlines of policing and counter-terrorism to border control.
Frank, 42, is under the complete control of his younger gay partner Dominic - and he loves it. With Frank's complete consent, Dom's fitted him with a rigid, ringed metal chastity device which completely encases his penis, keeping it resolutely pointing downward. Frank can SEE it, but he can't TOUCH it. There's room for just a little expansion inside the cage, so problems occur whenever Frank starts to get aroused, which happens with increasing regularity the longer he's kept locked in chastity. Dominic's excellent chastity routine goes on for many days at a time, and of course Frank's periods of denial are very, very difficult for him. In this highly erotic gay adult story for over 18s only,...

His grandfather left him with one task. Destroy a map that had been kept hidden for centuries. He could never imagine the journey it would lead him on and the secrets he would discover.

While its content is unique, author Mark Wallace Maguire's style and storytelling has been compared to Robert Ludlum, Tom Clancy and Dan Brown.
This fascinating, detailed study of the techniques and effects of male chastity is a really comprehensive study of this very popular disciplined regime which can be used for pleasure or punishment, or both. Keeping the male deprived of satisfaction, often for long periods, can give the woman GREAT satisfaction! When orgasm for the man is delayed - or completely denied - the focus is shifted from HAVING an orgasm (often involving anxiety) to NOT having an orgasm (involving humility, patience, and loving attention to the dominant female). This exciting new book looks at topics like choosing and fitting his device (metal or transparent plastic), asking permission to be released and then being m...
