概要
In this episode, host Dr Judith Koch speaks with Dr Alice Finden about her book, Counterterrorism and Colonialism: Everyday Violence in Britain and Egypt (Routledge, 2025). Drawing on feminist, postcolonial and socio-legal approaches, Finden challenges con-ventional accounts of counterterrorism, reframing it as a continuation of colonial governance and everyday violence. They discuss the ethical and practical challenges of conducting research in politically charged contexts, and how colonial archives can be read against the imperial logics they encode. The conversation also explored Finden’s engagement with theorists including Achille Mbembe and Giorgio Agamben, and her argument that counterterrorism operates not only through exception-al measures but through ordinary administrative and legal practices that reproduce unequal power. Finally, they consider contemporary counter-extremism policies in Britain, their colonial continuities, and the possibilities for resistance, refusal and hope within systems of violence.
