SOURCE Workshop 2 Societal Security and National Security: an Uneasy Relation?

15^th January 2015, 10:00 – noon. King’s College London, Strand Campus, Small Committee Room (K0.31), 2^nd Floor

The Research Centre in International Relations at King’s College London is currently involved in the EC-funded SOURCE Network of Excellence. Within that framework, the RCIR is organizing a workshop dedicated to understanding how societal security relates to national security.

The recent decision of the UK’s Investigatory Power Tribunal on the actions of UK’s intelligence services will provide the backdrop of the workshop’s interventions. Prof. Didier Bigo (KCL) and Dr. Sergio Carrera (CEPS) will explore how the terminologies of societal and national security intersect and who are the actors involved. Particular emphasis will be put on the legal and political challenges of transnational digital surveillance.

All are welcome. Email kclrcir@kcl.ac.uk The full programme for the workshop is here: SOURCE Workshop 2_Programme
