| Summary/Abstract |
Art galleries and museums have often been considered as sites at which the international and the political are both enacted and reworked. But how exactly does art ‘do’ geopolitics? Taking existing work on art and geopolitics in the gallery and museum as its departure point, this article advances a specific conceptual argument for how art does geopolitics that connects thinking in this area with broader debates in aesthetics and politics. Building on Jacques Rancière’s account of art as a dispositif, it explores the aesthetic politics – or metapolitics – through which artistic interventions have raised questions of oil within the Tate Galleries in London. Drawing out its ambiguities as well as potential critical implications, the article illustrates distinct ways in which the metapolitics of art may be activated via a discussion of The Robinson Institute, 2012, and of a series of interventions conducted since 2010 by the group Liberate Tate. In conclusion, the article draws out connections between the metapolitics of art and questions of governmentality.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article brings together governmentality and political economic readings of security to offer a critical examination of the international HIV/AIDS programmes operated by the US Department of Defense, particularly as they focus on populations in Africa. Reaching groups often left out of national HIV/AIDS strategies and conducting research into HIV vaccines, US military HIV/AIDS programmes can be read as supportive of the broader global health effort to secure populations from HIV. However, a consideration of publicly available material shows that growing US commitment to addressing the problem of HIV/AIDS parallels, and in the case of military programmes intersects with, the idea of Africa as a locus of strategic resources, fragile states and potential terrorist threats. These ideas are furthermore articulated in terms of a neoliberal teleology, in which health programmes appear as part of an effort to help populations along the path to normal, healthy development, occluding the exploitative manner in which populations and regions highly affected by HIV have been incorporated into the global political economy. Such rationalities are problematic in that they obviate a more substantive grounding of health in ideas of peace or equity and thus provide a poor guide to a more healthy global order. While noting the contribution of US military programmes to the international response to HIV/AIDS, the article emphasises the importance of examining associations between HIV/AIDS, military forces and security in terms of the broader web of rationalities and relationships within which they are situated.

| Summary/Abstract |
While the turn towards materiality over the course of the last decade has enriched studies of security in a variety of ways, the security field continues to pose challenges for materially oriented thinking. This article argues that while recent materially oriented work on security has been concerned with events, working through the question of the event as a central analytical strategy is a promising way of addressing such challenges and developing broader insights. The article develops this argument by working through a particular event, the killing of the former Russian security agent Alexander Litvinenko in London in 2006 by means of the radioactive element polonium 210. Approaching the event via the archive and report of the public inquiry that subsequently took place into it, and reflecting further on the utility of Bruno Latour’s idea of dingpolitik for materially oriented work on security, the article explores transformations of materiality, politics and publicity, and draws out how polonium 210 came to figure in the killing and the inquiry as actant, trace and evidence. In conclusion, the article reflects on the conceptual value of working through events and the methodological issues raised in the analysis.
