Weapons of mass participation: Social media, violence entrepreneurs, and the politics of crowdfunding for war

Promoting critical research and policy analysis on peace and conflict.

Security in Context is a networked initiative that promotes critical research and policy analysis on peace and conflict. Despite decades of prioritizing security, our planet has become increasingly insecure. We examine why, and show how rethinking military and security policy can reveal more equitable and sustainable solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.

Security in Context was formally launched in October 2020 with generous support from the Carnegie Corporation.
