Conventional interpretations cited such rhetoric as a more humane response to terrorism, foreign policy, and population management than the US after 9\/11. We propose a different view, that prevention is an administrative and organizational tradition\u2014with colonial origins\u2014 for European states that has ultimately influenced EU discourse. French and British efforts to \u201cprevent\u201d crime, particularly in minority populations, have their origins in the colonial period. What&#8211;if any&#8211;are the linkages between European colonial apparatuses and the modern administrative state? How can they explain rhetorical consistency and key differences in national policy?\u00a0This paper develops an organizational and institutional approach to explain the continuity found in French, British, and ultimately EU security policy regarding prevention. The approach will focus on the legacy of state organizations involved in colonial administration and later evolved to contemporary structures found in the Interior, Justice, and Foreign Affairs Ministries. We reaffirm the importance of national differences found in their degree of centralization and initial, but reaffirm organizational similarities to account for the continuity found in prevention rhetoric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My research questions sui generis assumptions about the US and EU and demonstrates political outcomes as driven by standard organizational rather than exceptional processes.
