Emergent Security Concepts
What does security look like 50 years from now? At a time of radical and uncertain technological, geopolitical and societal change, we cannot afford to only react - we must anticipate.
Security Lancaster brings together multidisciplinary researchers to explore the future contours of security, from climate-driven instability and AI autonomy to shifts in global power and emerging domains of conflict. Through structured internal workshops and creative sandpit exercises, we interrogate deep assumptions, surface novel risks, and cultivate radically new security paradigms. Our mission is to build the intellectual foundations for the security challenges of the next half-century—unconstrained by current silos, disciplines, or doctrines.
Current concepts under consideration are:
- Polycrises
- Security and Protection of the Self
- Truth and Trust
- New World (Dis)order
- Global Resource Supplychains
