尽管证券化理论已经在世界范围内得到了应用，但人们一直指责它对非西方世界的适用性有限。2010年，当高级安全理论中心开始与丹麦-埃及对话研究所和开罗金字塔政治和战略研究中心合作时，证券化理论受到了两个层面的挑战：一是利用它在中东范围内分析和采取政治行动；二是试图在阿拉伯之春期间和之后这样做，当时正在重新评估整个埃及安全部门。这些独特的情况促使人们思考非传统和传统安全概念的使用，如何通过证券化理论来理解埃及革命，以及该项目的经验可能对进一步的理论发展意味着什么。本文结合丹麦代表团的经验讨论了这些问题。
Although securitization theory has been applied worldwide, it has been accused of having only limited appositeness to the non-Western world. When the Centre for Advanced Security Theory began a collaboration with the Danish–Egyptian Dialogue Institute and the Al-Ahram Centre for Political and Strategic Studies in Cairo in 2010, securitization theory was challenged on two levels: both through its employment to analyse and act politically in a Middle Eastern context, and through the attempt to do so during and after the Arab Spring, when the entire Egyptian security sector was being re-evaluated. These unique circumstances prompted reflections on the use of non-traditional and traditional security concepts, on how the Egyptian revolution could be understood through securitization theory, and on what the experiences of this project might mean for further theory development. This article discusses these points in the light of the Danish delegation’s experiences.
