The Bachelor's Sweetheart by Jean C. By arguing that securitization cannot be both at the same time, Balzacq suggests a tendency towards self-referentiality, as the Copenhagen School initially ignored the audience as a unit of analysis. In a later piece, however, he discards securitization as a self-referential practice by clearly referring to it as intersubjective Balzacq b: This factor is particularly relevant in the second stage when it comes to convincing an audience of the discourse.
In a second stage, the securitizing actor must convince a relevant audience for example public opinion, politicians, or military officers that a specific referent object is indeed in substantial danger. The success of a securitizing move — consequently a successful securitization — does not depend on the adoption of such extraordinary means, however, but simply on the acknowledgment of the security threat by the audience.
Even when the general population rejects a security discourse and deems the extraordinary measures to be illegitimate, the securitization move can still be successful when accepted by a smaller audience Collins These conditions are the determining factors under which a speech act or securitizing move works and is accepted by an audience.

Firstly, internal conditions of linguistic-grammatical form determine the way the speech act is carried out and the way a matter is presented as an existential threat. Secondly, external, social or contextual conditions emphasize the position of the securitizing actor, for example whether he or she holds a position of authority which could facilitate the acceptance of a speech act by the audience. Additionally, an external condition can also be related to threatening features of the portrayed issue that either facilitate or impede securitization.
These attempts to broaden the concept of securitization are very useful when it comes to the empirical part of this thesis because they provide the basis for analyzing the construction of the maras from various angles. It is precisely this development that is explained differently from a philosophical and from a sociological perspective within securitization.
Securitization, seen as a practice, can be of a linguistic or non-linguistic nature, according to him and, as Balzacq suggests, the non-linguistic version does not negate the linguistic but in fact incorporates several of its characteristics. Instead of clearly determining one approach to be linguistic or not most are non-linguistic , Balzacq deems it more important to see in which way the philosophical and the sociological form of securitization that match his three assumptions: He argues that effective securitization is audience-centered because it is the audience that has to agree with the claims of the securitizing actor.
In order for an audience to agree with the portrayed claims, the securitizing actor has to identify with its needs, feelings and interests. Regarding the different roles of different audiences, Balzacq importantly distinguishes between formal and moral support for a securitization move.
While moral support is usually not sufficient, he highlights the importance of formal support, such as that provided by policy-making institutions, in order to adopt a policy to counter a security threat Balzacq Roe concretizes this by dividing the audience into 1 the general public providing moral support for an issue to fall within the area of security and 2 policy-makers e. A securitization move can furthermore succeed with one audience even when it fails with another one McDonald ; Salter The Copenhagen School claims that the concept of security modifies the context, provided that the rules of the speech act are successfully applied.
Ignoring the context of securitization makes it very unlikely that the complete social process related to it can be grasped because the speech act in fact relates to only one statement at one particular point in time Stritzel In this regard, McDonald also finds that the Copenhagen School defines the context too narrowly, with the focus lying exclusively on the time of intervention — the moment of articulating a security threat.
This focus prevents analyzing security as something that is constructed over time and that includes different processes and representations McDonald McDonald identifies three ways in which the Copenhagen School can be said to engage with contextual factors. I would recommend for a teenage girl It was a very innocent pg13 type of book.
