This Article theorizes “security” as a site of continuing struggle in the international system between competing approaches to identifying and responding to urgent threats. Rather than endorsing a single approach, this Article argues that a claim to “security” can imply any one of four approaches to law and policy, each of which has radically divergent implications for who is empowered by a security claim and how that power interacts with existing legal rules. By moving among these four approaches, security claims can disrupt established systems of knowledge-production and redescribe the world in new ways.

安全感
本文将“安全”理论化为国际体系中在识别和应对紧急威胁的竞争方法之间持续斗争的场所。本文不支持单一的方法,而是认为“安全”主张可以暗示法律和政策的四种方法中的任何一种,每种方法对谁获得安全主张的授权以及该权力如何与现有的法律规则。通过在这四种方法之间移动,安全声明可以破坏已建立的知识生产系统,并以新的方式重新描述世界。
