The Owl and the Clock:
the surveillant assemblage and the intellectual

The relationship of surveillance studies scholars to politics has been a constant and productive site of tension and debate. Within the assemblage theory community, however, the question of engagement has been limited. This talk puts assemblage theory in discussion with academics to illuminate some of the political dynamics inherent in tracing these complex networks of causality and emergence.

Everyone welcome!
