Round-Table Discussion: The Future of Critical Security Studies in Canada

Thursday 4th February 2010
1.30-3pm
Room 519
York Research Tower
York University, Keele Campus
(Free Admission)


Canadian security/(in)security and defense in theory and practice has been
challenged, re-defined and re-imagined in the changing political and
theoretical global environment in the last decade. These shifts require a
dialogue on recent turns in the field and innovative and multidisciplinary
approaches that call into question traditional understandings of security.


These challenges have been taken up by growing numbers of scholars within
Canada indicating that we may have reached the point at which a
distinctive Canadian voice in security studies may be emerging.

This roundtable discussion brings together distinguished scholars and
practitioners working in the area of Critical Security Studies to discuss
new approaches, critiques of existing approaches and future directions for
the field, both theoretically and regarding the practical development of
this area of research.

The panel features:

David Mutimer, Deputy Director, York Centre for International and Security
Studies, York University
Barbara Falk, Department of Defence Studies, Canadian Forces College
Mark Salter, School of Political Studies, University of Ottawa
Mark Neufeld, Deputy Director, Centre for the Study of Global Power and
Politics, Trent University
Miguel Larrinaga, School of Political Studies, University of Ottawa
Peter Nyers, Associate Professor, McMaster Universityvi
