The purpose of this series of events is to encourage critical dialogue on the phenomena of Wikileaks. We aim to explore the theoretical and discursive tensions inherent in representations of Wikileaks, as well as possibilities for praxis both within “the academy” and outside, in relation to questions about security, international relations, and the reconfiguration of public and private space. By bringing together scholars who work in the area(s) of media theory, radical democracy and the state, we hope to provoke future conversation about the broader ethical, legal and socio-political effects of Wikileaks.
