Collaboratory in Critical Security Methods
The International Collaboratory on Critical Methods in Security Studies is an ESRC funded project (RES-810-21-0072)
When studying different aspects of the visuality of security I have lonk been frustrated by the need to translate anything visual into verbal forms and subjugate it to the verbal mode of thinking and reasoning.
The Research Programme Securities at the Centre for Citizenship, Identities and Governance (www.open.ac.uk/ccig/programmes/securities) organized a two day workshop on visuality and war. It brought together scholars from art history, film analysis, international relations, sociology, and archeology to discuss the visualization of war.
Call for Participants for a Proposed Panel:
(Ab)using Images? Methodological approaches to the study of perception and visuality in critical security studies
This 2 day workshop has brought together the collective working established during the project with the purpose of sharing their collaborative experience, presenting the substantive work done on developing and applying critical methods, and organising further collaboration and collective writing.
