This section investigates recent trends in urbanization as containment and the resulting
militarization of police forces as well as the increasing urban training of military forces.
The goal of this section is to demonstrate how changes in the local and seemingly insular
urban environment have global security effects. We will also revisit the question of
structural versus subjective violence.
