Welcome to Blink
Since 2002, Surveillance & Society, the premiere journal of surveillance studies, has been publishing peer-reviewed academic work of the highest quality. Today, we’re announcing something new: Blink.
Blink is our version of a blog. While Surveillance & Society remains committed to supporting scholarship and creative works on surveillance studies, we also want to connect our articles to broader conversations about surveillance. Blink allows us to participate in these discussions by offering timelier dispatches than those allowed by the labor-intensive (but necessary) process of peer-review.
To that end, Blink will publish short dispatches from authors about their contributions to the journal, along with thematic round-ups, interviews, commentary, and other minutiae that don’t quite fit within the confines of Surveillance & Society itself. It’s our hope that Blink will offer new perspectives on surveillance issues for scholars and citizens alike.
