• Workshop : The political impact of security policies

  17 July 2007
  The WP8 unit of Challenge Project has organised a three-days workshop held on in Genoa, on June 14th, 15th, and 16th 2007, whose general aim has been to analyse and debate the main impacts of the so-called «securitarian turn» involving the global political scenario. The general framework of the workshop directly reflects the Genoa unit’s field of research within the Challenge project (namely, the social and political effects of security policies), starting from the theoretical assumption that security devices and practices directly produce a domain of fear, and thus a politics of insecurity, by investing the overall social and political relations and imposing themselves as a legitimated technique of global governance.
