Description
Global Surveillance and Policing: Borders, security, identity by Elia Zureik and Mark Salter explores how states have changed their policing and monitoring methods in response to increased perceived threats. This book brings together leading authorities to examine the theoretical and empirical aspects of border control and surveillance at physical and virtual borders. The authors consider both the ways in which modern states attempt to control their borders and mobile populations, as well as the implications for international law and crime prevention. A valuable resource for students, practitioners, and policy makers, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex issues surrounding global surveillance and policing. By examining the intersection of security, identity, and borders, Global Surveillance and Policing offers a nuanced understanding of the challenges facing modern societies.
