Speculative Security

Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the intersection of finance and security in the wake of September 11, 2001, highlighting how state surveillance has targeted previously overlooked practices like donations and remittances. It examines the impact of security measures, such as datamining and asset freezing, on legal transactions perceived to have potential ties to terrorism. The author argues that the scrutiny of these financial activities transcends mere regulation, influencing political, social, and cultural dynamics and significantly affecting everyday life.
