A recent wave of scholarship has drawn attention to the need for further
engagement with the role of 'the audience' in securitization 'games'. This
article contributes to this discussion both theoretically and empirically by
exploring the types of question an audience may ask of a securitizing actor
before a securitizing act meets with success or failure. To do this, it offers a
discursive analysis of all 27 UK parliamentary debates on the extension of
proscription powers to additional terrorist organizations between 2002 and 2014.
We argue first that these debates are characterized by a wide range of questions
relating to the timing, criteria, mechanics, consequences and exclusions of
proscription; and second, that these questions function as demands upon the
executive to variously justify, explain, clarify, elaborate and defend decisions
to extend the UK's list of designated groups. Taking these questions seriously,
we suggest, therefore allows insight into a variety of ways in which audiences
might participate in security politics that are not adequately captured by
notions of consent or resistance, or success or failure. This has empirical and
theoretical value for understanding proscription, parliamentary discourse and
securitization alike.
