Abstract

ABSTRACT Over the last six years, the P/CVE agenda has emphasized the need of preventative measures to augment kinetic counterterrorism security approaches. Based on field research in Kenya in 2019, this article analyzes the ‘police power’ of P/CVE, which compels populations to participate in their own security and ensure their own governability, otherwise marking them for elimination. P/CVE is read as a mode of civil counterinsurgency that operates to pacify populations seen as threats to a liberal international order through peacebuilding and development initiatives, curtailing the autonomy of civic space and securitizing the work of community organizations.
肯尼亚的反叛乱、社区参与以及预防和打击暴力极端主义议程
摘要在过去的六年里,P/CVE议程一直强调需要采取预防措施来加强动态反恐安全方法。基于2019年在肯尼亚的实地研究,本文分析了P/CVE的“警察权力”,它迫使人们参与自己的安全,确保自己的治理能力,否则就会被淘汰。P/CVE被解读为一种民间反叛乱模式,旨在通过建设和平和发展举措,削弱公民空间的自主权,并使社区组织的工作安全化,安抚被视为对自由国际秩序威胁的民众。
