Geopolitics in court
Reckoning with liberalism
Outbreak, epidemic, pandemic
Containing Contagion: The Politics of Disease Outbreaks in Southeast Asia. Sara E. Davies. Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore, USA, 2019, pp. xii + 212. ISBN 978-1-421-42739-3 (pbk). The story of global health politics is to a large extent, a story of events, both actual and potential—of outbreaks, epidemics and pandemics that have happened, are happening or which might happen—but also of non-events—the outbreak that didn't occur or the ep…
Geopolitics and the Event
Thinking security through the event
While the turn towards materiality over the course of the last decade has enriched studies of security in a variety of ways, the security field continues to pose challenges for materially oriented thinking. This article argues that while recent materially oriented work on security has been concerned with events, working through the question of the event as a central analytical strategy is a promising way of addressing such challenges and developi…

Art, Geopolitics and Metapolitics at Tate Galleries London
Art galleries and museums have often been considered as sites at which the international and the political are both enacted and reworked. But how exactly does art ‘do’ geopolitics? Taking existing work on art and geopolitics in the gallery and museum as its departure point, this article advances a specific conceptual argument for how art does geopolitics that connects thinking in this area with broader debates in aesthetics and politics. Building…
Experimental politics and the making of worlds
Beyond geopower
This article reconsiders the nature of art and geopolitics and their interrelations via a discussion of The Great Game, an artwork by War Boutique dealing with successive British military interventions in Afghanistan. As we discuss, The Great Game is richly suggestive in terms of the earthly materials and forces at work in geopolitics, or geopower. The main goal of our discussion, however, is to show how pursuing such concerns leads us back towar…

Rethinking art and geopolitics through aesthetics
A growing literature examines art in relation to the geopolitics of war, militarism and security. This paper argues that while this work has broadened the scope of critical research on geopolitics by attending to a hitherto under‐explored field of practice, it has been inhibited by a lack of attention to questions of aesthetics. To address this, the paper begins to conceptualise art and geopolitics in relation to this field. Emphasising the ambig…
After the Exception
Access to treatment for HIV/AIDS became a flashpoint for global justice struggles in the late 1990s. An expanding international response, premised to a significant extent on the idea of HIV/AIDS as an exceptional global problem, has since delivered treatment, care and prevention to growing numbers of people. HIV/AIDS exceptionalism, however, has increasingly been questioned, many aspects of the response have been critiqued and donor funding has s…

Critical Interventions in Global Health
The rise of the term global health reflects a concern with rethinking the meaning of health in the context of globalization. As a field of practice, however, global health renders problems, populations, and spaces visible and amenable to intervention in differentiated ways. Whereas some problems are considered to be global, others are not. Some are considered to be matters of global security, whereas others lack this designation and remain in the…
Bringing war home
Experimental geopolitics
Interest in alternative forms of geopolitics is growing. Frustrated with the apparent limitations of existing critical approaches, geographers are exploring new epistemologies and seeking to forge more practical, constructive and transformative modes of geopolitical intervention. In this article I argue that experimental tactics adopted by contemporary artists open up geopolitics for reflexive interrogation and creative refashioning in ways that …

Have you heard the one about the disappearing ice? Recasting Arctic geopolitics
Making geopolitics otherwise
This article considers how contemporary artists have have engaged with processes of militarization and governmentalization since 11 September 2001. It signals three areas of critical thematic interest where contemporary art intersects with contemporary geopolitics – questions of the body, of technology and of ‘things out of place’– and suggests that, while its practices and effects require careful critical attention, contemporary art is a field i…

The New Geopolitics of Disease
This article describes the emergence of a new geopolitics of disease following the end of the Cold War and offers a framework for thinking about it. Three main questions are asked. First, why is disease now a geopolitical issue? Second, how has this new geopolitics emerged? And third, what are the implications of the emergence of disease as a geopolitical issue for the meaning and practice of global health? It is argued that disease is now seen a…

Interventions in the new political geographies of the European ‘neighborhood
Domopolitics and Disease
Geographers and others have become increasingly interested in the intersections between globalization, disease, and security, particularly in relation to 'short-wave' public health threats such as SARS and pandemic influenza, but 'long-wave' epidemics such as HIV/AIDS are also often said to raise questions of security. While a literature is emerging to analyze the politics of security in relation to global HIV/AIDS relief, in this paper I argue t…

HIV/Aids, security and the geopolitics of US–Nigerian relations
One of the more striking features of international responses to HIV/AIDS has been the framing of the pandemic in terms of security. But while a growing literature attempts to establish and explain putative linkages between HIV/AIDS and security, little work has addressed HIV/AIDS-security discourse with critical reflexivity or applied such an approach to particular cases. This article makes contributions in both these areas, locating discussion i…

The Geopolitics of Disease
This article reflects on the increasing use of the term geopolitics in discussions of disease. It notes that although the term geopolitics has been used increasingly often, its precise meaning has not received sustained attention. Neither has it been conceptualized in relation to the extensive literature in critical geopolitics. To lay the groundwork for a more considered understanding of geopolitics in relation to disease, the article elaborates…
Biosecurity and the international response to HIV/Aids
A growing critical literature examines the rise of biosecurity. HIV/AIDS has been mentioned in this literature as a biosecurity issue, but despite its importance as a major global health problem, the ways in which HIV/AIDS might be considered a matter of biosecurity have not been explored in depth. This article addresses this issue, particularly in relation to the international response to HIV/AIDS, through the conceptual prism of governmentality…

The Pentagon's HIV/Aids Programmes
This article brings together governmentality and political economic readings of security to offer a critical examination of the international HIV/AIDS programmes operated by the US Department of Defense, particularly as they focus on populations in Africa. Reaching groups often left out of national HIV/AIDS strategies and conducting research into HIV vaccines, US military HIV/AIDS programmes can be read as supportive of the broader global health …
Global Leadership and Global Health
Global health problems are often framed as common challenges confronting humanity, and while political commitment and resources have recently increased, a number of faultlines run through efforts to mount collective responses. Although the United States has staked its claim to leadership in the fight against disease, its actions diverge in several key respects from much of the international community, undermining the effectiveness of global effor…

France and the New Imperialism
This book uses critical approaches to international relations (IR) and security to examine French policy in sub-Saharan Africa, with a particular focus on military affairs. This enables an incisive and insightful account of the forces shaping Franco-African relationships over an extended period, with an emphasis on continuities of practice despite shifts in discourse. What the book offers is an exploration of the hegemony of a particular social f…
