通过各种全球,国家和地区的曲折跟踪的“安全”概念的政治历史,本文认为“本土安全”的概念的分析有用性。这一概念所包含的是一个建议,把“安全”作为一个社会定位和话语定义的实践开放的比较和政治语境的解释,而不仅仅是一个分析范畴,需要完善的定义和一致的使用。虽然与全球治理的兴起相关的安全理念和政治是建立在关于安全意味着什么的近代理念基础上的,但全球治理的延伸并不是无缝的。因此,经过更仔细的考察,全球安全的本体论和政治学的表面普遍性会分解成一种更复杂的模式。基于来自印度尼西亚的材料,文章认为,“本体政治”的安全有全球,国家和地方的曲折,其中的相互作用需要重新审视。
Tracing the political history of the concept of ‘security’ through a variety of global, national and regional inflections, this article argues for the analytical usefulness of the concept of ‘vernacular security’. Entailed by this concept is a proposal to treat ‘security’ as a socially situated and discursively defined practice open to comparison and politically contextualized explication, rather than merely an analytical category that needs refined definition and consistent use. While the ideas and politics of security associated with the rise of global governance are built on late-modern ideas about what it means to be safe, global governance is not seamless in its extension. The apparent universalism of the ontology and politics of global security therefore breaks down into a more complex pattern upon closer inspection. Based on material from Indonesia, the article suggests that the ‘onto-politics’ of security have global, national and local inflections, the interplay of which requires re-examination.
