The digital age is also a surveillance age. Today, computerized
systems protect and manage our everyday life; the increasing number
of surveillance cameras in public places, the computerized loyalty
systems of the retail sector, geo-localized smart-phone
applications, or smart traffic and navigation systems. Surveillance
is nothing fundamentally new, and yet more and more questions are
being asked: Who monitors whom, and how and why? How do
surveillance techniques affect socio-spatial practices and
relationships? How do they shape the fabrics of our cities, our
mobilities, the spaces of the everyday? And what are the
implications in terms of border control and the exercise of
political power? Surveillance and Space responds to these modern
questions by exploring the complex and varied interactions between
surveillance and space. In doing so, the book also advances a
programmatic reflection on the very possibility of a 'political
geography of surveillance'.
