Many contemporary surveillance practices take place in information
infrastructures which are from the public domain. Although they
have far reaching consequences for both citizens and their rights,
they are not always subject to regulatory demands and oversight.
This being said, democratic fora where citizens and institutions
may question such practices cannot be mobilised without widespread
awareness of the dangers and consequences of surveillance practices
and who is responsible for them. Through an analysis of
surveillance controversies across Europe, this book not only
examines the troublesome relationship between surveillance and
democracy; but also highlights the vested interests which maintain
the status quo. Using a participatory theory lens, Surveillance and
Democracy in Europe reveals the historical, social, political and
legal antecedents of the current state of affairs. Arguing that
participation is a sensitising concept which enables a wide array
of surveillance practices and processes to be interrogated, this
insightful volume will appeal to students and researchers
interested in fields such as public administration and policy,
political studies, organisational behaviour and surveillance and
privacy.
