>The Management of Global Human Security
>Towards an Interdisciplinary Critique
>
>
>One-Day Interdisciplinary Workshop
>Friday 18th July 2008, 10.00-17.00
>
>
>Why Global Human Security?
>We are told time and time again that we live in 
>a globalizing world, and that this presents 
>great risks as well as great opportunities to 
>our lives. What has unfolded however, is an 
>inherently complex arrangement of power 
>relations, discourses and institutions that set 
>the agenda for how these risks are envisioned 
>and how they are played out in the international 
>arena. The workshop organizers relate these 
>complexities to the problematic concept of human 
>security. Human security is sustained by a 
>belief in the individual and in human rights, it 
>has been propagated by fringe economists such as 
>Amartya Sen who have provided the theoretical 
>links between democracy, wealth and peace. It is 
>also sustained by global efforts to transport 
>these political ideas to other locations - 
>indeed - to any location (geographic, economic, 
>political, social) that steps up to the mark and 
>embraces "liberal democracy". The organizers 
>identify this globalizing human rights agenda as 
>highly contentious and seek to develop a 
>managerial critique of these issues.
>
>
>Themes
>The workshop brings together delegates from 
>different disciplines and encourages presenters 
>to connect management studies to the following
