Assignment 01 Short essay 30% weighting

This assignment is a short essay of 1000 words (not including the bibliography). You are allowed 10% (100 words) over or under this word count.

Drawing upon either panopticism or the new penology critically discuss how the state (and its associated organisations) utilises surveillance to control the population.


Assignment 02 Group presentation 30% weighting

Group Presentations will occur in the regularly timetabled seminar slots in the weeks beginning 10 May and 17 May 2016.

As part of the Small Group Discovery Experience component of this course students will be expected to work together in groups of around five to examine a particular organisation that undertakes surveillance of the population with the purpose of crime control and / or maintaining social order. Examples could include the police, prison services, schools, private security firms etc. As a group you need to research and then describe the surveillance activities of this particular organisation. If you choose a large, diverse institution, such as the police, you should choose to focus on a particular group within the organisation.

Your choice of focus needs to be approved by the seminar tutor.

Please don’t copy the lectures!

Each group will then present for 10-12 minutes:
1) Outlining the surveillance activities of their chosen case study.
2) Providing examples from their case study of known incidents of crime / deviance / social control where surveillance technologies were utilised.
3) Make a judgement regarding the effectiveness of these surveillance technologies.

Each member of the group must take part in the presentation. The group will be given a single combined mark for their presentation.


Assignment 03 Individual report 40% weighting

You must write an individual report that is 2000 words in length (not including the bibliography). You are allowed 10% (200 words) over or under this word count.

The report should focus on the same topic selected for your group presentation. There are two key elements to this report. Firstly it must provide a description of surveillance activities undertaken by the selected organisation. Secondly, you must use at least two concepts from the lectures (listed under key concepts in the lecture overview list) to explore how the technologies described seek to exert control and are resisted. If you wish you can use the same concept you discussed in assignment 1.
