Pluralizing Transnational Security Governance in Latin America: From the Global Cold War to the War on Terror
Mon, May 27, 10:45am to 12:15pm, TBASession Submission Type: Panel
Abstract
Transnational security governance in Latin America is usually studied through the prism of US-Latin American relations. In turn, the role of countries other than the US in shaping the dynamics of the region’s transnational security entanglements has fallen out of the picture. In bringing in other actors than the US, and by following these “other” forms of transnational security governance from the Global Cold War to the Global War on Terror, this panel seeks to decenter and pluralize the debates on transnational security governance on the region.
