It has been said that the study of surveillance has been particularly good at studying the watchers, but not as good as studying the watched. This book marks a decisive break with Foucauldian perspectives by placing the subjects of surveillance on centre stage. Based on a large research project based in a Northern City in the UK and focusing mainly on the use of surveillance in the context of policing and security, Michael McCahill explores how a diverse range of social groups ( school children, political protesters, persistent offenders, flawed consumers, global migrants, and police officers ) experience and respond to being monitored by a wide range of new surveillance technologies (CCTV cameras, Electronic Monitoring, and drug testing) used across the public-private divide.
