Event
Hosted by the School’s Centre for Organisational and Employee Wellbeing (COEW), this one-day symposium will explore the rise of organisational securitisation in response to the increasing perception of global disorder associated with war, disease and climate emergency.
Keynote speakers from top British and European universities, will discuss these challenges and what kind of management and organisation is needed to cope with these phenomena.
With a background in organisation studies, organisational sociology, political geography and science and technology studies, these internationally renowned scholars will focus on three key issues:
- The shift in public-private relations in the management of state boundaries and borders
- The role and organisational nature of digital infrastructures in the management of boundaries and borders, to include issues like surveillance and control
- The interweaving of digital work, surveillance and security in the construction of new subjectivities and new subject positions.
If you are a researcher or PhD student interested in these areas, don’t miss the opportunity to join this symposium for free.
As well as discovering the latest insights from leading researchers, you will have the opportunity to network, with lunch and refreshments included.
