The articles present a wide range of topics, from feelings of unsafety generated by early modern fake news to safety issues related to twentieth-century drug use in public space. The volume demonstrates how 'safety' is not just a social or biological condition to pursue but also a historical and cultural construct. In philosophical terms, safety can be interpreted in different ways, referring to security, certainty or trust. What does feeling safe and thinking about a safe society mean to various groups of people over time? The articles in this volume are bound by their joint effort to take a constructionist approach to emotional expressions, artistic representations, literary narratives and political discourses of (un)safety and their impact on modern European society\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47616425197719,"sku":"9781041187547","price":3818.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781041187547.webp?v=1775113299","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-cultural-construction-of-safety-and-security-imaginaries-discourses-and-philosophies-that-shaped-modern-europe-9781041187547","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
