“…Social researchers need to be conscious of their identities and adapt their behaviours as a result. This reinforces the point that a great deal of AMR research is about understanding how to navigate complex relationships in sensitive, and sometimes risky, policy and cultural spaces (Marks & Abdelhalim, 2018 ). Achieving buy‐in from those parties who ultimately need to change their behaviours, including industry, policymakers, and communities is crucial, and, in fact, is a matter for social scientists.…”

Antimicrobial Resistance as a Global Health Threat: The Need to Learn Lessons from the COVID‐19 Pandemic

et al. 2022

The global COVID‐19 pandemic has exacerbated existing health, social, and economic challenges and threatened progress towards achieving the UN sustainable development goals. We discuss lessons learned from the COVID‐19 pandemic for global policymaking for health security governance, with a particular focus on antimicrobial resistance. We identify One Health as the primary foundation of public health risk management owing to the collaborative, multidisciplinary, and multisectoral efforts that underpin the One Health approach and that enhance understanding of the complex interactions at the human–animal–environment interface. We discuss the narrow human‐centric focus of the One Health approach, highlight the underrepresentation of the environmental sector in One Health networks, and encourage greater representation from the environmental sector. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of the social sciences for health security research and the need for effective communication and trust. Finally, we underscore the importance of strengthened and collaborative health, social care, and disaster management systems. The application of these lessons will facilitate holistic, multisectoral, collaborative, and ethical actions on antimicrobial resistance.

“…The ethnographic field study brought the researcher close to stigmatised or even legally sanctionable actions (Ferrell & Hamm, 1998; Lyng, 1998). Arrival, as an extreme context, is a ‘risky’ research environment, due to its ‘near-constant exposure to potentially extreme events’ (Hällgren et al, 2018, p. 117), in our case physical violence, in which ‘researchers can become ethnographers of brutality and hostility’ (Marks & Abdelhalim, 2018, p. 307). Yet, the researcher was only at risk to a limited degree: he neither participated in violent practices, nor was he ever the target of violence committed by guards or Arrival’s inhabitants.…”

This paper explores how violence is mobilised for control purposes in organisations. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted at the total institution we name Arrival—a German refugee reception centre—we develop how private security guards engage in practices of signalling and exerting violence vis-a-vis Arrival’s residents to enforce rules. Our research contributes to the extant literature in three ways: First, we elucidate how practices of violence, following a logic of escalation and deterrence, work for organizational control purposes. Second, our research shifts the extant focus from discursive to embodied forms of invisibilization by showing how violence is made simultaneously visible and invisible in its very enactment. Third, it provides insights into situational interactions rather than conditions of violence in total institutions.
