[email protected]. TENTATIVE SECURITIES: 26/11, ISRAEL AND THE POLITICS OF MOBILITY by Rhys Machold M.Sc. Global Politics, London School of Economics and Political Science, 2009 B.A.Sc. McMaster University, 2008 Dissertation Submitted to the Balsillie School of International Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Doctor of Philosophy in Global Governance Wilfrid Laurier University Waterloo, Ontario, Canada © Rhys Machold 2015 Abstract This dissertation examines the global mobility of security knowhow in relation to the management of terrorism in megacities. Specifically, it offers three insights. First, it shows how historical events are performed as sites in need of transnational policy intervention. Second, it enables an understanding of how and why the sourcing of policy ‘models’ actually takes place. Third, it sheds light on how mobile policy schemes travel geographically and are put to work in particular contexts.
