01.02.2022 New volume in the book series "Politiken der Sicherheit | Politics of Security" published
In the CRC series "Politiken der Sicherheit | Politics of Security" the 10th volume "Security and Difference in Historical Perspective" has been published. The contributions in the book, edited by Sigrid Ruby and Anja Krause, examine historical and current conceptions of security, i.e. discourses and practices aiming at collective security, for their interrelation with categories of difference such as gender, race, status, religion, etc. and their intersection. What does the historical perspective contribute to an intersectional critique of security studies? Multidisciplinary and empirically diverse objects of study from the Middle Ages to the present will be used to analyze the perception, interpretation and effects of security-related practices and discourses.
