Title: | Securitisation in the Arab region : a new form of kinship relations? | Authors: | Astudillo, Francisco Boustany, Razane Gentil, Henriette Kassis, Mudar Taha, Nora |

It demonstrates how this process negatively impacted on human rights and infringed on freedoms, failing to serve national security and human security. The logic the article follows is based on an assumption that securitisation is organically connected to neoliberal transformations, which tend to deform the role of the state in protecting its citizens, and the autonomy of individuals by obliging them with new duties, and conditioning their lives upon a sophisticated regulatory system under various pretexts, not the least of which is security. This conditioning poses a threat to the nature of the everyday, which is the ultimate goal of all political organisations, and is perceived to need protection, as the everyday is the scene where the principles of equality of humans and their dignity are realised. | Description: | Article in : Global Campus Human Rights Journal, (2017) 1, p. 435-462 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11889/6340 |
