Decentring security governance

Author

Abstract

A new security governance has spread in domestic and international areas of policing. Security is increasingly associated with community and capacity building. There is a consensus that the way to build communities is through networks. Yet, the new security governance varies widely in ways that reflect the traditions through which civil servants, street level bureaucrats, voluntary sector actors, and citizens interpret and resist networked security. Security governance is thus a set of diverse practices emerging from contests over meanings, including the social scientific theories that inspired the turn to networks and the local traditions through which policy actors have encountered, interpreted, and evaluated the policies these theories have inspired.
