[IT] Gli agenti patogeni stanno scrivendo la storia e poiché oggi l’intero pianeta sta patendo gli effetti dell’assedio di una pandemia elusiva è saggio riflettere sul rapporto tra salute e sicurezza nazionale.

There is a sprawling scholarship on violence, crime, and corrupt state rule; yet few have interpreted these challenges as transformative at a global scale and as a potential source of alternative, non-state, legitimacy.
