Planning for a Secure City 403880 789811 9
Planning for a Secure City Undergirding the perceptible dimensions of a liveable city—a bustling economy, dazzling skyline, state-of-the-art public infrastructure and amenities—is its ability to provide its inhabitants and visitors alike the confidence that their personal STUDIES URBAN SYSTEMS safety is ensured and safeguarded. Yet, at times, balancing security and urban design needs presents unique, though not insurmountable, challenges. This Urban Systems Study charts the critical role that security planning and urban design have together played in Singapore’s transformation from being the crime-ridden city that it was some 50 years ago to one of the safest places in the world today. It discusses the country’s use of innovative ideas and technology, its pragmatic approach to security enforcement and urban planning, and its willingness to challenge traditional Planning for A Secure City norms of security provision where necessary. It also examines how neither liveability nor security was compromised in Planning for Singapore’s plans to better prepare itself for emerging security and societal threats. a Secure City This book additionally highlights how the co-opting or active involvement of the public in various security-related initiatives, and the resulting trust built between the government and people, have complemented and enhanced the efforts of Singapore’s security and planning agencies in creating a secure city. “ A good city, first you must feel safe in it. There’s no use having good surroundings but you are afraid all the time… Today a woman can run at three o’clock in the morning… [go] jogging… She will not be raped. -

1 Björn Bjarnason, Minister of Justice, Iceland. Climate Change And
1 Björn Bjarnason, Minister of Justice, Iceland. Climate Change and Iceland’s Role in North Atlantic Security, Belfer Center, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard, 26 November 2007. Let me begin by saying that it is an honour and a pleasure for me to be here today at the Belfer Center of the John F. Kennedy School of Government. I thank you for giving me the opportunity to return to the school after my stay here in May 2000. And of course, I should like to greet all the distinguished guests who are present to hear my remarks. In May 2000, I took part in a leadership course here at the Kennedy School on how to deal with conflict and chaos in the 21st century. At that time I was Minister of Education, Science and Culture, and for me it was a pleasant experience to be able to return to the classroom as a student and have some time for myself in order to be better prepared to deal with constantly changing political and governmental tasks. One piece of advice we were given was to leave the dance floor occasionally and go up onto the balcony in order to see the whole picture and set a better course than is possible to do while one is engaged in the dance itself. Your invitation to me to come here today has once again reminded me of this good advice, and in preparing my lecture I put it into practice. I went up onto the balcony and looked at trends and developments in the North Atlantic, including climate change, exploitation of the Arctic and changes in maritime activity from a geopolitical and security perspective, in particular as regards Iceland´s security, which is indissolubly intertwined with security in the North Atlantic region. -

Farið er yfir þróun umræðu, löggjafar og stefnumótunar um öryggismál, með sérstakri áherslu á tímabilið 2006-2014. Þá er einnig fjallað um áhrif öryggisnálgunar stjórnvalda á stofnanir sem starfa á sviði almannaöryggis og er sérstaklega horft til þróunar almannavarnakerfisins á Íslandi sem nær eingöngu hefur miðast við að bregðast við náttúruhamförum þó að ákveðin breyting sé að verða þar á. Íslensk stjórnvöld hafa ekki sett sér formlega stefnu í öryggismálum, en litið hefur verið á aðild Íslands að Norður-Atlantshafsbandalaginu og varnarsamninginn við Bandaríkin sem hornstein í öryggis- og varnarmálum. Eftir að bandaríski herinn fór frá Íslandi árið 2006 voru öryggismál tekinn til endurskoðunar. Áhættumatsskýrsla sem kom út árið 2009 lagði grunninn að stefnumótun stjórnvalda sem nú fer fram, þ.e. þróun þjóðaröryggisstefnu og stefnu í í almannavarna-og öryggismálum. Það sem nú þegar liggur fyrir um þessar stefnur gefur til kynna að öryggisviðhorf stjórnvalda takmarkist ekki lengur við hernaðarlegt öryggi og landvarnir. Í ritgerðinni er einnig fjallað er um áhættuhugtakið en öryggismál eru í auknum mæli sett í samhengi við áhættu og er Ísland engin undantekning þar á. -

Policing Migration: Described and Observed Cooperation Experiences of Police and Border Guards’ in the Baltic Sea Area
Policing Migration: Described and Observed Cooperation Experiences of Police and Border Guards’ in the Baltic Sea Area Authors: Yakhlef, Sophia; Basic, Goran & Åkerström, Malin This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published in the Journal of Applied Security Research online [January 12, 2017], available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/19361610.2017.1228422 To cite this article: Yakhlef, Sophia; Basic, Goran & Åkerström, Malin (2017) Policing Migration: Described and Observed Cooperation Experiences of Police and Border Guards in the Baltic Sea Area, Journal of Applied Security Research, 12:1, 117-140, DOI: 10.1080/19361610.2017.1228422. Abstract: “Collaboration” is generally portrayed as being beneficial to intelligence and operational police work, even if previous collaborative research shows that conflicts are common between authorities who are supposed to cooperate. The present study focuses on how officers collaborate in their day-to-day management of border guarding, taking into consideration the different social and cultural backgrounds of the project participants. To these ends, this qualitative study is based on empirical material gathered from interviews, and field observation sessions with officers working at the Baltic Sea border agencies. The findings suggest that, although collaboration is burdened with bureaucratic difficulties, there is a common understanding of purpose among the project participants. These border officers’ common declared their objective is to fight criminality and create a safer Europe. However, the participants possessing different organizational and cultural backgrounds have to adapt to adopt a common language (in officers’ terms EU-English), common schemes of categorizing (inside-outside distinctions), and develop a sense of trust and identity.
