It puts forward the argument that the EU’s strong incentives to these technologies – on the grounds of its potential for generating economic, industrial and innovation synergies between the civilian and the military domains – are a political choice that have relevant consequences in the security politics of the Union. }, year = {2020}, journal = {Routledge}, month = {2020-06-10}, url = {https://www.taylorfrancis.com/chapters/edit/10.4324/9780429351846-4/security-politics-innovation-bruno-oliveira-martins-neven-ahmad}, doi = {10.4324/9780429351846-4}, note = { The chapter provides an overview of the main academic debates surrounding the concept of dual-use technologies in different academic fields and it contributes to these discussions through a Science and Technology Studies-inspired analysis of the EU reality. Our contribution argues for the necessity of further dialogue between intellectual traditions emanating from STS and critical approaches to security and military studies.}, }
