دوستان، در این ویدیو جدید من در باره رابطه دو مقوله امنیت و آزادی بحث می کنم و همچنین بحثی دارم در باره قانون گرایی. نکته اساسی بحث من این است که امنیت فردی و مدنی زمینه وجود آزادی های اجتماعی هستند. واین ایده که برخی متفکرین قدرت گرا می کنند که برای تحقق دموکراسی باید آزادی های مدنی را محدود کرد تا امنیت ایجاد شود بسیار اشتباه است. این وجود آزادی است که امکان امنیت را فراهم می کند. و البته که یک جامعه آزاد و با امنیت قانون گردهم خواهد بود. قانون مقدم به آزادی نیست.

Next week, join us for a discussion led by Moslem Ghomashlouyan (University of Bern) with Naor Ben-Yehovada (Columbia) about how contraband mobility in Iran incarnates entangled multiscalar (dis)connectivities, drawing on his recent ethnographic fieldwork in a border village in Iranian Kurdistan.

We hope to see you there!
