Insecurity

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Challenging several key concepts of the twenty-first century, including precarity, securitization, and resilience, this collection explores insecurity as a predominant logic governing recent cultural, economic, political, and social life in the West. The essays illuminate how attempts to make human and nonhuman systems secure and resilient end up having the opposite effect, making insecurity the default state of life today."--
