Thinking Allowed: Surveillance

This episode of Thinking Allowed examines the area of surveillance.

Rather than focusing entirely on how we are being watched, there is a discussion on how we are often willing participants in conducting surveillance of our own through forms of social media.

This could be useful for the Theory and Methods, Crime and Deviance (crime control, surveillance, prevention and punishment, victims, and the role of the criminal justice system and other agencies) and The Media (the new media and their significance for an understanding of the role of the media in contemporary society).
