Technologies and methods of controlling civilian life developed and tested in the Middle East often migrate to the United States and other world markets, where they\u2019re used on some of the most marginalized populations. In particular, the Israeli security industry plays a pivotal global role in developing policing tactics, weapons, and instruments, which are marketed around the world.\nShimrit Lee discusses the expanding Israeli security industry and how it promotes its products and security philosophy with a profound, if often unexamined, impact on global police tactics. Lee argues that the marketing tropes used by this growing security industry have contributed to further normalization of violence against civilians.\nParticipants include:\nShimrit Lee, curator, writer, and educator, New York University\nRohan Advani, senior policy associate, The Century Foundation
