Centre for Conflict, Security and Societies

Description

The Centre for Conflict, Security and Societies promotes the transdisciplinary study of the challenges that international security and conflict pose for global, regional and local communities.

The Centre is dedicated to a pluralist understanding of security and conflict that takes account of the different social, cultural, political, economic, and legal implications of security policies, practices, narratives and effects.

The Centre carries on research into:

• the materiality of security (weapons, technologies, artefacts, extractive industries)
• practices of security and insecurity (everyday enactments, habits, rules, organisations, modalities of interventions, militarisation, secrecy, terrorism and counter-terrorism, cyber, contestation)
• histories of conflict and security (Cold War, narratives, discourses)
• security agents and agency (practitioners, militaries, movements)
