While the term ‘security assemblages’ lends substantial analytical purchase to mappings of contemporary security governance arrangements, this contribution suggests its purchase could be radically expanded by building on insights by John Dewey and elaborated upon by actor-network theory (ANT). Where most studies use the term ‘security assemblage’ negatively – to show how contemporary security governance doesn’t fit the state-centric institutional and territorial mold of traditional IR theorizing – I argue that the work of pragmatists such as John Dewey can enrich the analytical purchase of the term ‘security assemblage’. By being agnostic as to the ontological nature of governance arrangements, I want to suggest that Dewey and ANT widen the scope of what security assemblages are.

Normally, the situation referred to by the “pariah problem” is that of an individual person who, despite being guaranteed membership of a political society, has his or her rights totally or partially unrecognized. Prior to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights these rights were guaranteed exclusively by one’s belonging to a sovereign state that would grant each subject recognition as a citizen. Therefore, the Declaration of 1948 was made in order to provide a solution to the problem of the pariah that was so clearly evidenced during WWII. However, despite the intentions of its authors, the real effects of this declaration on the global political-legal situation have not been what was hoped for. It has given rise to true pariah-states which are excluded from the very human rights that they are accused of violating.
