Counterinsurgency – control of activism

Counterinsurgency is a systematic discipline developed by military and state intelligence service to control and co-opt dissent, which includes all activism and counterculture. It is extensively deployed in NATO countries, although present principles were researched and developed in the US. This workshop discusses what counterin-surgency is in principle and what it looks like among populations in NATO states. Attendees will be invited to participate in a group activity.
