  • The collapse has begun. It is political

    , by Alain Bertho

    As revolts erupt all over the world, governing today is more and more like waging an open or covert war against the uprisings of peoples and living beings, to maintain at all costs an increasingly discredited order. Anthropologist Alain Bertho returns here for Terrestres on this "crisis of governmentality" and on the long sequence of related revolts that caused it.

  • Gaza “laboratory” boosts profits of Israel’s war industry

    , by Agence Média Palestine, Gabriel Schivone

    Israel’s arms industry is twice the size of its US counterpart in exports per capita and employs a percentage of the national workforce double that of the US or France, two of the top global arms exporters. After exploring the vast surveillance regime along the US-Mexico border and finding Israeli systems installed at every turn, Gabriel Schivone returns in this article to the investigation conducted with writer Todd Miller on Israel as the largest homeland security industry in the world.

    Judicial repression has become a new weapon of States in the fight against social protest.

    The last case that prompted our reaction involves the sentencing of 6 young people for the death in a fire of a 71-year-old worker during a street demonstration on 21 May 2016. These heavy sentences for a highly publicized case raise many doubts and make it possible to affirm, what is becoming a habit, the existence of a police and judicial structure to find guilty parties.

    , by DRÉANO Bernard

    New wars of dislocation (disruption) ? They are different from the "old" wars between Nation-States. They take place within countries or certain regions. They do not directly oppose States, but rather involve a multiplicity of actors, armies, various militias, as well as external armed forces.

    In this context, a “military-security complex” is developing around corporations active in both the military and civilian sectors, serving both external military interventions and internal control policies.
