在证券化分析和安全问题的社会建构中，已经有许多人呼吁将图像包括在内。本文回答了这些呼吁，通过检查一个长期的证券化过程中，言语行为已经交织在一个强大的符号。回顾过去和可能的未来的可视化，这篇文章追溯了所谓的原子科学家的末日时钟的重置，因为证券化/去证券化与全球指涉对象一起移动。虽然科学家们的证券化论点是合理的，但时钟的象征却能唤起人们的情感。文章的理由是，虽然图像和符号可以促进，或阻碍，证券化的动作，这是很难理解的图像，没有锚定，可以带来证券化，不会被制度化以前。
There have been numerous calls to include images in the analysis of securitization and the social construction of security issues. The present article answers these calls by examining a longstanding process of securitization in which speech acts have been interwoven with a powerful symbol. Looking into the past and a visualization of possible futures, the article traces the resets of the so-called Doomsday Clock of the Atomic Scientists as securitization/desecuritization moves with a global referent object. While the Scientists’ securitization arguments have pleaded to rationality, the symbol of the Clock has worked to evoke people’s sensibilities. The article reasons that while images and symbols can facilitate, or impede, securitization moves, it is difficult to fathom how images, without anchorage, could bring about securitization that would not have been institutionalized previously.
