This sub-plenary explores the rise of organizational securitization in response to what many perceive to be increasing global disorder. In this context we explore three issues of importance to organization studies today: 1) the shifting landscape or pattern of public-private relations in the management of state boundaries and borders; 2) the role and organizational nature of digital infrastructures in this management of boundaries and borders, to include issues like surveillance and control; 3) the interweaving of digital work, surveillance and security in the construction of new subjectivities and new subject positions. To address these questions the panel has assembled a number of internationally renowned scholars in organization studies, organizational sociology, political geography, and science and technology studies.
