Vortrag im Rahmen der ISWI 2009: Human rights in a world of fear - in which society do we want to live? Mass-surveillance: Data retention, biometric databases, CCTV
surveillance, international exchange of personal data, passenger name
records and secret no-flight-lists, the extension of competences of
police authorities and the melting of the competences of polices,
military and secret services on a large scale.
Tearing down basic priciples of democracy like the principle of
subsidiarity, the principle of innocence until proven guilty and the
principle, that secret investigations breaking basic civil rights always
should be ultima ratio.
The european war on "illegal" immigration with Frontex and
paramilitarian methodes at the borders of Europe, causing the death of
thousands of refugees year by year.
This are the topics of the workshop about human rights vs. security.
But what are the reasons for the ongoing armament of the civil life
by implementation of militarian logic into the sector of inner security
and justice?
Who are the driving forces behind the evolving security sector reform?
Since the fall of the Berlin wall and the end of the "cold war", but
latest after 9/11/2001, western societies are concentrating on new
enemies: terrorism, illegal immigration copyright infringers and other
threats on the field of inner security. This could mean: when the state
loses the enemy from the outside, who leads to unity within, the
politics has to find other enemies to keep the unity and social peace??
Or is it the melt-down of social safety programmes since the 80ies,
which led politicians to slowly shift their rhethorics from "social
security" to security in terms of police and militarian security - maybe
to keep the citizens calm, giving them the feeling of safety and that
"someone's doing at least something", even in times of increasing
unemployment?
This and other questions are to asked during the workshop - and together
we may find appropriate answers of the civil society against a
wild-running surveillance mania. Ort: VHS 301
Zeit: 10:30 Referent: Ricardo Cristof Remmert-Fontes
