Issue 3: Foucault and Panopticism
Publication Date: end May 2003
Submission Deadline: February 28th 2003
The work of Michel Foucault has been crucial in the study of
surveillance
and social control, in particular his interpretation of Bentham's
model
prison design, the Panopticon. The Editors invite submissions from
all
disciplines responding to Foucault's writings on surveillance and
social
control, analysing his contribution to surveillance studies,
extending,
critiquing or challenging his analysis, or critically examining
previous
and current interpretations of Foucault and panopticism.
- Future themed issues in 2003-4 are likely include: automation
and
algorithms; art and culture of surveillance; espionage and military
surveillance; and, biometrics, genetics and the body - Surveillance
&
Society is hoping to organise a major international conference in the
latter area in 2004... watch this space.
Surveillance & Society welcomes both conventional academic and
artistic
submissions, and will always consider submissions not relating to
the main
theme of the issue.
The Editors are also always open to suggestions on future themes.
Constructive advice and offers of help, particular on the possible
conference and our soon-to-be-established Surveillance Resource
Base
<www.surveillance-and-society.org/resources.htm>, are
appreciated.
