TOWARDS A CRITICAL THEORY OF SURVEILLANCE IN IN...

The aim of this book is to clarify how surveillance in informational capitalism can be
theorised. This work constructs theoretically founded typologies in order to systemise the
existing literature of surveillance studies and to analyse selected examples. It argues that
conventional surveillance theories are insufficient for studying surveillance in general and
Internet surveillance in particular. In contrast  a typology of surveillance in informational
capitalism  which is based on the foundations of a critical political economy approach  allows
to systemise and to analyse (online) surveillance in the spheres of production  circulation 
and consumption. In conclusion  political recommendations are drawn in order to overcome
surveillance in informational capitalism.
