We now live in a pre-crime society, in which information technology
strategies and techniques such as predictive policing, actuarial
justice and surveillance penology are used to achieve
hyper-securitization. However, such securitization comes at a cost
- the criminalization of everyday life is guaranteed, justice
functions as an algorithmic industry and punishment is administered
through dataveillance regimes. This pioneering book explores
relevant theories, developing technologies and institutional
practices and explains how the pre-crime society operates in the
'ultramodern' age of digital reality construction. Reviewing
pre-crime's cultural and political effects, the authors propose new
directions in crime control policy.
