• Securitarism, reproduction of disorder and erosion of democratic rule of law

  22 January 2007, by Palidda Salvatore
  Insecurity and security has taken an increasing importance and political weight since the 1980s and more so since the 1990s, first of all, in the United States and then in Europe and the rest of the world. The phenomenon has grown through the often extreme medialisation on the issue of insecurity and security of the great urban agglomerations in wealthy nations. After the 11th September 2001, it was absorbed into the subject of permanent war against the new «global enemy» . Before going into an analysis of the different interpretations of the phenomenon, I believe it would be useful to outline the contents and therefore the theoretical and methodological instruments I intend to use in this work.

• La favola della sicurezza : Un dialogo tra filosofi antichi e un sociologo

  27 dicembre 2006, di Dal Lago Alessandro
  Da quando le FF.SS sono state scorporate in un certo numero di società autonome raccolte sotto la sigla Trenitalia, la qualità dei viaggi in treno è drammaticamente peggiorata. Convogli soppressi all’ultimo momento, ritardi continui, coincidenze impossibili, vagoni sporchi, gelati o torridi, toilette nauseanti o perennemente chiuse, prezzi aumentati, vessazioni di ogni tipo. In cambio, però, le stazioni hanno visto la comparsa di gente dall’aria truce, abbigliata in tenuta da sommossa urbana e armata di pistola e manganello. Sono le forze di sicurezza privata ingaggiate dalle ferrovie per proteggerci. Così, al danno continuo si è aggiunta la beffa. Il servizio è pessimo, ma è sicuro. Ovviamente, il costo della sicurezza ricade sui viaggiatori.

• «Liberalism and the culture of danger»

  26 December 2006, by Foucault Michel, Scandamis Nicholas
  Foucault inserts a new conceptual acceleration of the passage to liberalism, through fear and danger. Danger becomes the prerogative of the liberal function, through a culture of stimulating and reproducing a notion of continuous danger to the actors of economic life.

• «Liberalism and Danger in Michel Foucault’s Naissance de la Biopolitique (Lesson of January 24, 1979)» : Further remarks

  26 December 2006, by Foucault Michel, Scandamis Nicholas
  «Liberalism is engaged into a mechanism where it will have, at every moment, to arbitrate the liberty and security of individuals around this notion of danger». This phrase/sentence, drawn from Michel Foucault’s lesson of January 24, 1979 (Naissance de la Biopolitique, p. 67), is of great importance, since it makes clear, for the first time in the philosopher’s work, the link between the concept of liberalism on the one hand and that of security and liberty on the other, using as an intermediary the notion of danger.

• Libertarianism and the question of Liberty and (Market) Security

  26 December 2006, by Friedman David, Hoppe Hans-Hermann, Scandamis Nicholas
  The most important question pertains to the crucial relationship between liberty and security. Nowhere in the two works is the issue considered in detail and in its implications. That is to say, there is no treatment of the relationship as a trade-off or otherwise. If one strictly follows libertarian principles, there is no way to determine a priori the specific terms of this relationship or whether it should be left to the free market to decide upon these terms.

• Livre gris sur la sécurité et la défense

  20 décembre 2006, par Francart Loup
  L’auteur propose une politique englobant sécurité et défense désormais liées dans une sécurité nationale : aménagement des organisations de sécurité et redéfinition d’une stratégie de lutte contre le terrorisme ce qui suppose également une adaptation nécessaire de la stratégie militaire afin de répondre au mieux à tous ces problèmes

• La société vulnérable : criminalité, terrorisme et insécurité en Europe

  20 décembre 2006, par Hassid Olivier
  L’Europe n’est plus perçue comme un véhicule de paix mais bien comme un espace d’insécurité. L’auteur s’attache donc à établir un bilan objectifs des problèmes (analyse du danger, les acteurs les lieux d’insécurité, la prévention du crime, l’évaluation des dispositifs de sécurité au regard des libertés)

• L’ordre humanitaire en disparition ? Entretien avec Paul Grossrieder

  20 décembre 2006, par Eberwein Wolf-Dieter, Grossrieder Paul
  Cette question est fondamentale car nous nous trouvons dans une phase de la politique internationale qui semble être dominée par la notion de sécurité. Des mots clés seraient le terrorisme, la pauvreté et l’échec des Etats, problèmes fondamentaux qui seraient à résoudre par la création d’un ordre international fondé sur des Etats démocratiques et les droits de l’Homme. Avec la fin de la Guerre Froide, les Etats en tant que collectivité sont en principe capables de mettre en oeuvre cette vision de Kant. L’action humanitaire d’urgence ne serait donc qu’une phase transitoire, si, en effet, la fin de l’histoire était en vue. Mais un gouffre profond sépare vision et réalité.

• The politics of protection : sites of insecurity and political agency

  20 December 2006, by Dobson Andrew, Huysmans Jef , Prokhovnik Raia

The authors have identify and explore five issues that challenge or raise a number of questions about the traditional notion that states are to protect their citizens through retaining a monopoly over the legitimate use of violence

• Rapport d’information fait au nom de la délégation pour l’Union européenne sur les « clauses passerelles » et les « coopérations renforcées » en matière de justice et d’affaires intérieures

  18 décembre 2006, par Haenel Hubert
  Selon le présent rapport, la justice et la sécurité sont des domaines auxquels les citoyens européens attachent beaucoup d’importance ; ils souhaitent une meilleure coopération entre les pays. Le traité constitutionnel prévoyait des avancées dans ces domaines, notamment en favorisant le processus de décision. L’échec des référendums en France et aux Pays-Bas a empêché l’application de ces solutions.
