Accompanying the exhibition at the Academy of Fine Arts, Berlin, edited by Olaf Arndt, Janneke Schönenbach, Moritz von Rappart and Cecilia Wee.

As the waves of international terrorism reach vital organs all over the world at the beginning of the 21st Century, new threats curtail the dream of a peaceful, undivided and secure world. Indeed, everything that can be performed “in the name of security” appears desirable: security has now become an ideology. The publication interrogates these pressing issues, appropriating the words of composer Gershon Kingsley to ask its audience, “what would you give for security?” As a reference book to the subject, the publication compiles contributions by sociologists, historians, media artists, political and cultural scientists.
