Surveillance is a central organizing practice. Gathering personal
data and processing them in searchable databases drives
administrative efficiency but also raises questions about security,
governance, civil liberties and privacy. Surveillance is both
globalized in cooperative schemes, such as sharing biometric data,
and localized in the daily minutiae of social life. This innovative
Handbook explores the empirical, theoretical and ethical issues
around surveillance and its use in daily life. With a collection of
over forty essays from the leading names in surveillance studies,
the Handbook takes a truly multi-disciplinary approach to
critically question issues of: surveillance and population control
policing, intelligence and war production and consumption new media
security identification regulation and resistance. The Routledge
Handbook of Surveillance Studies is an international, accessible,
definitive and comprehensive overview of the rapidly growing
multi-disciplinary field of surveillance studies. The Handbook's
direct, authoritative style will appeal to a wide range of scholars
and students in the social sciences, arts and humanities.
