When Biometrics Fail: Gender, Race, and the Technology of Identity
ISBN: 9780822351238 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From digital fingerprinting to iris and retina recognition, biometric identification systems are a multibillion dollar industry and an integral part of post-9/11 national security strategy. Yet these technologies often fail to work. The scientific literature on their accuracy and reliability documents widespread and frequent technical malfunction. Shoshana Amielle Magnet argues that these systems fail so often because rendering bodies in biometric code falsely assumes that people's bodies are the same and that individual bodies are stable, or unchanging, over time. By focusing on the moments...

The New Media of Surveillance
ISBN: 9780415568128 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The spread of new surveillance technologies is an issue of major concern for democratic societies. More ubiquitous and sophisticated monitoring techniques raise profound questions for the very possibility of individual autonomy and democratic government. Innovations in surveillance systems require equally innovative approaches for analyzing their social and political implications, and the field of critical communication studies is uniquely equipped to provide fresh insights. This book brings together the work of a number of critical communication scholars who take innovative approaches to...

Feminist Surveillance Studies
ISBN: 9780822358923 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Questions of gender, race, class, and sexuality have largely been left unexamined in surveillance studies. The contributors to this field-defining collection take up these questions, and in so doing provide new directions for analyzing surveillance. They use feminist theory to expose the ways in which surveillance practices and technologies are tied to systemic forms of discrimination that serve to normalize whiteness, able-bodiedness, capitalism, and heterosexuality. The essays discuss the implications of, among others, patriarchal surveillance in colonial North America, surveillance aimed...
