"Two Sides of a Barricade" argues that to construct global
democracy, conflict and dissent must be taken seriously. Christian
Scholl explores the political significance of the confrontations
within four sites of interaction: bodies, space, communication, and
law. Each site of struggle provides a different entry point to
understand the influence of protester and police tactics on each
other. At the same time, the four sites of struggle allow a
comprehensive analysis of how the contestation of global hegemonic
forces during summit protests trigger a preemptive shift in social
control through increased deployment of biopolitical forms of
power.
