Sumario: | Sylvia focuses on the impact of the "If You See Something, Say Something" advertising campaign in the New York City subway system. She demonstrates how ideas regarding security and terrorism are socially constructed; it shows how the narrative of the war on terrorism as a political project was linked to the narrative of a local urban security campaign.
