Surveillance Studies: An Overview presents a timely exploration of a field that lies at the heart of debates over privacy, civil liberties, and control. In this accessible overview, David Lyon, a pioneering figure in surveillance studies, weaves together classical discussions—from the ideas of Bentham and Foucault to emerging concerns of the war on terror era—with an analysis of modern surveillance technologies. The book spans a broad spectrum of topics, from local face-to-face oversight to technical innovations such as closed-circuit television, RFID, and biometrics, illuminating both the predictable and ambiguous nature of surveillance. Drawing on international examples and insights from disciplines like sociology, political science, and geography, this volume invites readers to critically engage with the dynamics of observing and classifying. Surveillance Studies: An Overview not only surveys global trends but also offers practical tools to assess the powerful interplay between visibility and power in contemporary society. With 256 pages of thoughtful analysis, this book is an essential resource for students and scholars eager to understand and evaluate the evolving landscape of surveillance.
