Gated communities: socialness and social retreat

If you feel that you are being watched, it may well be that you are.  Surveillance is an ever growing feature of 21st century life in countries across the world, raising issues of  social justice, security and community. The tracks on this album explore how forms and practices of surveillance reveal the entanglements between welfare, crime and society and the tensions and overlaps between policies aimed at delivering social welfare and those intended to control crime. The material is drawn from the course DD208 Welfare, crime and society
