Though the term \"homeland security\" is closely associated with the United States, Israel is credited with first developing this all-encompassing approach to domestic surveillance and territorial control. Today, it is a central node in the sprawling global homeland security industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars. And in the wake of the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, India emerged as a major growth market. Known as \"India's 9\/11\" or simply \"26\/11,\" the attacks sparked significant public pressure to adopt \"modern\" homeland security approaches. Since 2008, India has become not only the single largest buyer of Israeli conventional weapons, but also a range of other surveillance technology, police training, and security expertise.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePairing insights from science and technology studies with those from decolonial and postcolonial theory, \u003ci\u003eFabricating Homeland Security\u003c\/i\u003e traces 26\/11's political and policy fallout, concentrating on the efforts of Israel's homeland security industry to advise and equip Indian city and state governments. Through a focus on the often unseen and overlooked political struggles at work in the making of homeland security, Rhys Machold details how homeland security is a universalizing project, which seeks to remake the world in its image, and tells the story of how claims to global authority are fabricated and put to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56599730815350,"sku":"9781503639690","price":123.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_36048840.jpg?v=1762354481","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781503639690-fabricating-homeland-security","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
