Police on Camera
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-34243-9 (ISBN)
The book provides the reader with conceptual and empirical analyses of the role and impact of police body-worn cameras in society. These analyses are complimented by invited commentaries designed to open up dialogue and generate debate on these important social issues. The book offers informed, critical commentary to the ongoing debates about the implications that BWCs have for society in various parts of the world, with special attention to issues of police accountability and discretion, privacy, and surveillance.
This book is designed to be accessible to a broad audience, and is targeted at scholars and students of surveillance, law and policy, and the police, as well as policymakers and others interested in how surveillance technologies are impacting our modern world and criminal justice institutions.
Bryce Clayton Newell is an Assistant Professor in the School of Journalism and Communication at the University of Oregon. His books include Surveillance, Privacy and Public Space (2019) and Privacy in Public Space (2017; both with Tjerk Timan & Bert-Jaap Koops).
