Room S8 Maison de la paix and online
We invite you to join us for a talk with Christian Bueger, Professor of International Relations at the University of Copenhagen, on Maritime Domain Awareness and the securitization of the oceans on 21 March at 12:15pm.
30 years after it was introduced, the epistemic communities approach continues to prevail as a conceptual framework for the study of expertise in international relations. Reflecting on how knowledge production and expertise has changed in the past decades, Christian Bueger, Professor at the University of Copenhagen, proposes to resuscitate the framework to reflect on commodification, democratization and digitalization and shift towards the concept of 'infrastructure'.
In this talk he reflects on the epistemic infrastructures that render the oceans knowable, revealing how activities and structures known as Maritime Domain Awareness offer new modalities of knowledge production and revised ocean spatialities and are key to understanding the securitization of the oceans.
