Abstract
This chapter develops the concept of the finance-security assemblage as a lens onto the transnational institutional innovations produced in this domain. It starts with a reflection on the methodologies used in this research and with the wider question of how to study the assemblage. It argues that the pursuit of terrorist monies amounts not strictly to a practice of global governance, in which sovereign states are compelled to enact certain laws and regulations, but to a practice of global biopolitical governing, in which mundane transactions, donations, and affiliations are securitized and governed in novel ways. This global biopolitical governing is preemptive in that it seeks to govern transactions thought to be “precrime”—or transactions that are “perfectly legal” but are conceptualized to hold specific potential to support terrorism. A genealogical reading of the imagination of multiple futures in security premediation draws out its affinities with derivates and financial speculation.
