This paper attempts to demonstrate the dissonance between the highlighted themes placing people at the epicenter and yet excluding the general public and their actual security needs, examines national security from a consumer’s perspective. To underscore a dissonance in the discourse on national security, the writer explores the paradigm of national security policy. Then, it illustrates the discord between the public security needs in their everyday life and the outlined threats in the national security documents. To validate the above argument, the paper offers a new avenue on the overlooked consumer identity of human beings and demonstrates the probability and impact of threats to national security by means of the qualitative data analysis.

Abstract Patients and the public are involved in health and social care research more than ever before. Much effort has been put into developing patient and public involvement (PPI), and promoting co-production of research with patients and the public. Yet there is little guidance for researchers on how to involve PPI partners in the research process, or how involvement can be judged as meaningful. This presentation has its origins in the attempts of one research team to question and navigate a way of involving PPI in long term care research. In this presentation, we describe our model of collaborative qualitative data analysis with PPI partners, in a study exploring primary care services for older adults living in long-term care facilities in England. Anonymised interview transcript excerpts were presented in written, audio, and role-play format to our PPI partners. PPI partners derived meaning from interview data, identifying, confirming and critiquing emerging themes. Their input at this critical stage of the study deepened our initial analysis and prompted the research team to new and different interpretations of the data. This talk addresses ways of engaging PPI partners in innovative ways during data analysis, and offers other researchers some questions, challenges and potential principles for effective practice. We conclude that in areas such as long term care, with multiple stakeholders and a dynamic environment, effective PPI may be flexible, messy and difficult to define.

Policy Agendas

This paper discusses the deadly use of violence as a public security agenda, focusing on police lethality and military interventions. Through a literature review to understanding concepts – such as “war,” for example – used in public security policy agendas, the study seeks to frame the notion of political violence, mainly referring to the policies designed to combat violence in Brazil. The objective is to problematize the public security policy based on the idea of confrontation, which adopts the logic of war and the notion of “enemy”. The paper is divided into three parts. The first is a conceptual approach to violence and war, and the second is the analysis of the dynamic of deadly use of force. Finally, the third part is a contextual analysis of violence in Rio de Janeiro, its characteristics, and central actors, using official statistics on violence in the region.

Pussy Riot

This article describes the short but remarkable sociopolitical life of the Russian rock group Pussy Riot. The group became famous in 2012 not only for the political content of its performances but for its transgressive performativity: its violation of established public settings and its creation of disturbing anti-authoritarianism images of today’s official Russia. The analysis aims to establish Pussy Riot as part of an avant-garde movement and as a radicalization of the very idea of the avant-garde against the familiarity of the public aspect of everyday life. Public ‘normalcy’ reveals itself to be complicit in that what should be criticized is instead taken for granted, and legitimized. Pussy Riot is a new art avant-garde in terms of both how it relates to activism, social justice, feminism, and art, and to the general public, not only to the art world.

The author aims at defining the parameters of Danish security policy in the seventies, both in its external aspects (alliance policy, etc.) and in its internal aspects (defence policy). The study is based upon the public debate and – in particular – recent official reports on security policy which are presented in some detail. After analysing the historical background, the study sets out to present official Danish views of the international environment, both at the global, regional and sub-regional levels, and in more detail, of its implications for Danish national security. The study then goes on to analyse trends in Denmark's external security policy, and it concludes that there is not much prospect of significant departures from present policy. Finally, the current debate on defence policy is presented with special attention to the analysis of the new Defence Act of 1973 and its formulation.

To highlight the significance of the NP, this chapter first briefly outlines the history of the National Police. Next, it discusses police training to meet the two main objectives of protecting the people and providing domestic security. Afterward, the chapter focuses on outstanding security initiatives and programs in which the NP played an important role. Finally, the chapter recounts the general security situation in South Vietnam and two particular events in 1966 and 1968 in which the chapter's author was personally involved.

The Cold War

In 1961 families across the United States witnessed the sudden growth of one of the most remarkable consumer products of the Cold War: the home fallout shelter. This article charts the rise of domestic sales for home fallout shelters between 1961 and 1963, the growth in the number of shelter salesmen, the public backlash against their sales techniques, and the eventual decline of the home shelter market. The story of the family fallout shelter exposes the limitations of consumer capitalism in mobilizing and sustaining popular support for national security policy. Questioning the validity of the product being sold and the trustworthiness of the person pitching it, homeowners challenged the citizen-consumer ideal that supposedly went hand-in-hand with the state sanctioned vision of privatized survival.

Sense Of Security

Currently, a change in the relations between the Police and the society, taking on the form of a dialogue, can be noted in Poland. The paper describes the operation of the National Map of Security Threats, an important element in the process of public security management implemented by the Polish Police. It presents the operation of the tool and discusses the results of personal research into the assessment of the National Map of Security Threats made by the inhabitants of the Silesian Province. The results are then compared with the results of the nationwide survey carried out by the Polish Police. This article consists of several parts. The first indicates that the National Map of Security Threats is a tool of contact between the public and the Police. Based on information obtained from citizens, the Police may use their force and resources more rationally, and can better plan the service of police officers. Within the framework of the dialogue and feedback obtained by the Police communicating with the public, the elimination of risks is more efficient and effective, which in turn reinforces the public sense of security. The National Map of Security Threats has given citizens the opportunity to speak in situations of threat, preceding the occurrence of threats and enabling the implementation of public expectations related to the formation (co-shaping) of security on the local scale. The second part of the article discusses the legislation governing the operation of the National Map of Security Threats. The National Security Risk Map is a platform for the exchange of information between the Police and the public. This is one of the most important elements of socialisation of the Police. The evaluation of the National Map of Security Threats by the users in the light of conducted surveys was presented. The last part of the article discusses the ‘Operation of the National Map of Security Threats’ project which was implemented in the Opole garrison. This project was completed in 2019. It resulted in studies on the assessment of the functioning of the National Security Risk Map in all units of the Opole garrison.
