Lecture and discussion: ‘Rearmament on NATO’s Eastern Flank – War-readiness as a Permanent Form of Organisation in International Politics’
There is not yet (officially) an open war between NATO and Russia, but the possibility of one is already acting as a key driver of German rearmament.
Future scenarios of a possible escalation are having an impact on budget negotiations and political decisions.
In practice, this means: more money for the military, armaments, the police, intelligence services and surveillance.
At the same time, for us in the neighbourhood, it means fewer resources for education, culture, health and social security.
Security policy priorities are taking precedence, whilst social infrastructure comes under pressure and societal needs are increasingly treated as secondary.
Developments on NATO’s eastern flank have concrete repercussions that reach right into our everyday lives 💸
