Abstract

The text serves as an introduction to a new subfield of what in the 1990s began to be described as "surveillance studies". The original field had as its original concern the intensification of citizenship surveillance through the registration of their information in state databases, biometrics and the proliferation of video surveillance. This new subfield, the surveillance studies on the Internet, was taking shape as the Internet was becoming a multiple space of communicative interaction that went beyond borders and legislation.
