Age of Security

Anthropologist Ruben Andersson explores how the rise of the security industry has deeply influenced politics and daily life, often creating a false sense of safety while increasing fear and vulnerability. Through immersive reports from various global hotspots, he reveals how efforts to control and surveil have become sources of paranoia, with important implications for privacy, freedom, and democratic control. The audiobook offers a thought-provoking examination of the current security landscape and suggests that a humanist approach can help restore balance and freedom.
