Recenzje

A masterful book of undisputed importance, The Panoptic Sort examines the forebearers of today's surveillance regimes. At a time when society is being asked to reckon with discriminatory technologies of power, Gandy's seminal work equips us with the tools to understand-and challenge-sociotechnical systems of control." -Seeta Peña Gangadharan, Associate Professor, London School of Economics and Political Science
