The Synoptic City
Early 20th-century urban expansion developed alongside media technologies to aid communication across increasingly differentiated and divided social groupings.

Surveillance in the city
The shift to an entrepreneurial city has inaugurated changes in the surveillance and control of urban space through a myriad of technologies and legal-moral ordering practices. This has occurred as cities attempt to reimage and remarket themselves in the context of regional, national and international inter-urban competition for capital investment. A re-emphasis on the visual in the politics of the street underpins changes in the primary definiti…

In doing this the paper seeks to contextualize CCTV within contemporary 'partnership' approaches to regeneration which are reshaping the material and discursive form of the city. Thus CCTV schemes along with other security initiatives are understood as social ordering strategies emanating from within locally powerful networks which ar…
