Our democratic future: The future of security
Prof Ben Ansell explores how we can control the security technologies of tomorrow.
Have citizens of wealthy countries been lulled into a false sense of security about threats from abroad and at home? This second lecture examines how we can control the security technologies of tomorrow, from facial recognition to autonomous weapons. And it concludes by suggesting how we can develop technologies powerful enough to protect us without exploiting us.
The series is delivered by Ben Ansell, professor of Comparative Democratic Institutions at Nuffield College, Oxford University.
