Opening plenary:

Warnings |
| There have been
many terror warnings since the events of 9/11 - but what is
the role of the modern terror warning? Has it gone beyond giving
the public practical information to help us avoid being harmed
or killed, towards something else? Do warnings bring people
together against a common threat - or further atomise us by
heightening our sense of fear? |
