The global pacification industry -- A pivotal Israel -- Weaponry of hybrid warfare and securocratic control (niche 1) -- The securocratic dimension: a model of "sufficient pacification" (niche 2) -- Managing hedgemony throughout the world-system -- Domestic securitization and policing.
"Governments today are waging a 'war against the people' - whether 'securitization' against asylum seekers in Fortress Europe, 'counterinsurgency' in Afghanistan, or the subliminal war of policing and surveillance arising everywhere. Israel's contribution to this is key: exporting the high-tech weaponry, security systems and methods of pacification perfected on the Palestinians in the Occupied Territories. Jeff Halper exposes these technologies of control, which blur the lines between the military, domestic security agencies and police, and reveals Israel's pivotal role in the worldwide suppression of human rights"--Back cover.
