In How to Secure a Country From Border Policing via Weather Forecast to Social Engineering—A Visual Study of 21st-Century Statehood, Salvatore Vitale explores this Switzerland’s national security measures by focusing on “matter-of-fact” types of instructions, protocols, bureaucracies, and clear-cut solutions which he visualizes in photographs, diagrams, and graphical illustrations. The result is a case study that can be used to explain the global context and the functioning of contemporary societies.

Edited by Salvatore Vitale, Lars Willumeit. With essays by Roland Bleiker, Philip Di Salvo, Jonas Hagmann, Salvatore Vitale and Lars Willumeit.
