In
the past decade, the use of closed circuit television
(cctv) for surveillance and crime control has grown
to unprecedented levels. in Britain between £150
and £300 million pounds per year is now spent
on a surveillance industry involving an estimated 300,000
cameras covering shopping areas, housing estates, car
parks and public facilities in great many towns and
cities.
cctv is very quickly becoming
an integral part of crime control policy, social control
theory and community consciousness. It is promoted by
police and politicians as primary solution for urban
dysfunction. It is no exaggeration to conclude that
in britain, the technology has had more of an impact
on the evolution of law enforcement policy than just
about any technology initiative in the past two decades.
