Neoliberal Securitisation and Symbolic Violence: Silencing Political, Academic and Societal Resistance

Autor Masoud Kamali
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 apr 2022
This book explores the consequences of the last three decades’ substantial neoliberal securitisation of freedom of speech, democracy and social security of racialised groups. Its empirical material contains in-depth interviews with racialised politicians, journalists, academics and civil society activists in Sweden. Like many other countries, Sweden has combined a neoliberal reorganisation of society with securitisation policies in which ‘the war on terror’ has played a central role. In order to understand the complexity of neoliberal securitisation policies and the analysis of the empiric material, the study makes use of central theoretical concepts, such as ‘the spiral of silence’, ‘symbolic violence’, ‘governmentalisation’ and ‘neoliberal racism.’ It will be of particular interest to students and scholars of political sociology, social policy and social work.

Recenzii

“The book is easy to read and is very enlightening by exposing the previously hidden underbelly of a phenomenon that is rarely brought to the surface, let alone exposed to a systematic analytical academic approach. … It is highly recommended to read as it provides an apt analysis of how the neo-liberal world … transforms politically, socially, economically as it is subjected to crises and challenges by non-establishment forces.” (Greg Simons, Global Affairs, October 3, 2021)

Caracteristici

Brings together an interest in neoliberalism studies and security studies to address the issues of free speech and racism in three distinct sectors in Sweden Provides an empirical focus on political parties, policies, academic activities and civil society activism Expands the analysis beyond the Swedish context, whilst also using the Swedish case as an important example of a supposed stronghold of democracy and equal rights
