Interesting conference in Freiburg in a couple of weeks –

For about a decade, issues of security have been high on the agenda of societal debate. The social sciences and the humanities have been quick to analyze the impacts of such strivings for heightened security. However, due to the different perspectives on different subjects, interdisciplinary dialogue has been rare. This is especially the case in the German academic context, where a field such as “security studies” does not exist. This workshop therefore aims at rectifying this omission. It brings together scholars from different disciplines in order to allow for synergetic effects in the research on security
