SSN Book Prize

The Surveillance Studies Network and Surveillance & Society award an annual book prize to a scholar who has published a book concerned with surveillance in the calendar year.

Once the long list is compiled, a short-list is drawn up by the S&S Editors, and the judges will be chosen from the Advisory Board of Surveillance & Society, who will decide from the short-listed books.

Calls for nominations will be posted accordingly.

Books that are eligible must be:

Primarily concerned with surveillance
Published in the calendar year
Monographs, not edited collections
Original works in English (or newly translated into English)
