State harms: solidarity, denunciation and resistance

06/23/23 • 27 min

What are state harms? What are the formal and informal ways they are enacted? How can solidarity, denunciation and resistance challenge state harm and what opportunities and openings for change exist?

Federica Rossi and Chris Magill are guest editors of a themed section on state harms in the latest issue of 'Justice, Power and Resistance'. In this episode, they speak to Jess Miles about what state harms are, how they are justified, opportunities for resistance and whether academic research itself should be political.

Cybersecurity is political

Cybersecurity is about identifying something you want to protect and exercising power in order to preserve it, Tim Stevens says in this, the last of three short conversations about his new book, 'What is Cybersecurity for?'.

In this episode, we focus on cybersecurity’s political dimensions, including interstate competition that could manifest as cyberwarfare, the reasons why the world has not (yet) seen major acts of cyberterrorism, and the ways in which citizens in democracies can get involved in mapping out our cybersecurity future.

They discuss the problem of how reviews are commissioned and carried out, omissions in the report and the need for co-production and the need for dissent to stand up for people with less power.

What does the future of children’s rights in the UK look like?
