DESCRIPTION:Deniz Yonucu (Newcastle University): The War on Politics: Pol
 icing as the Generation of Disorder and the Already Existing Abolition.\
 n\nIn this talk\, based on my book Police\, Provocation\, Politics: Coun
 terinsurgency in Istanbul\, I will present a counterintuitive analysis o
 f contemporary policing practices\, focusing particular attention on the
  incitement of counterviolence\, perpetual conflict\, and ethnosectarian
  discord by the state security apparatus.?Drawing on a case study from T
 urkey\, but also engaging with various examples from the Global South an
 d North\, I approach policing not solely as a project of pacification bu
 t also as provocative and permanent war on politics. Policing as a war o
 n politics is not only concerned with providing and maintaining order bu
 t also with generating disorder. I will discuss how this war selectively
  targets already existing abolitionist practices that are experimented b
 y racialised and oppressed populations. Informed by what I call “cultura
 l archives of oppression and resistance” these abolitionist practices ar
 e perfect examples of politics ( a la Rancière) that should be taken ser
 iously by anthropologists who are committed to learn from the tradition 
 of the oppressed.
