Surveillance is everywhere. Be it in workplaces monitoring the performance of employees, social media sites tracking clicks and uploads, financial institutions logging transactions, advertisers amassing fine-grained data on customers, or security agencies siphoning up everyone's telecommunications activities, surveillance continually finds new causes, new effects, and new reasons to endure. Because of growing awareness of the central role of surveillance in shaping power relations and knowledge across social and cultural contexts, scholars from many different academic disciplines have gravitated to 'surveillance studies' and contributed to its solidification as a field. Torin Monahan and David Murakami Wood's 'Surveillance Studies' is a broad-ranging reader that provides a comprehensive overview of the dynamic field |
