About Security Games: Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events (Glasshouse Book)

Security Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events addresses the impact of mega-events – such as the Olympic Games and the World Cup – on wider practices of security and surveillance. and “Mega-Events and ” pose peculiar and extensive security challenges. The overwhelming imperative is that and “nothing should go wrong. and ” There are, however, an almost infinite number of things that can and “go wrong and “; producing the perceived need for pre-emptive risk assessments, and an expanding range of security measures, including extensive forms and levels of surveillance. These measures are delivered by a and “security industrial complex and ” consisting of powerful transnational corporate, governmental and military actors, eager to showcase the latest technologies and prove that they can deliver and “spectacular levels of security and “. Mega-events have thus become occasions for experiments in monitoring people and places. And, as such, they have become important moments in the development and dispersal of surveillance, as the infrastructure established for mega-events are often marketed as security solutions for the more routine monitoring of people and place. Mega-events, then, now serve as focal points for the proliferation of security and surveillance. They are microcosms of larger trends and processes, through which – as the contributors to this volume demonstrate – we can observe the complex ways that security and surveillance are now implicated in unique confluences of technology, institutional motivations, and public-private security arrangements. As the exceptional conditions of the mega-event become the norm, Security Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events therefore provides the glimpse of a possible future that is more intensively and extensively monitored.
