About SISAW

 

Speaking International Security at Warwick - SISAW - provides a broad forum for speaking about security within CSGR and the University of Warwick. It is also an umbrella for impact-facing projects that focus on how political agents speak security and what difference this makes.

Projects

 

SISAW fosters developing mixed-methods research projects that interlink security discourse with policy formulation, political strategy, and security policy consequences.

SISAW projects engage with issues that have long cut across disciplinary boundaries, such as rhetoric, political bargaining, opinion formation, framing effects, and political culture.
