>Dear all,
>
>Dr William Webster and I have been successful in getting through the
>first stage of the ESF-COST network bidding process with a bid on
>"Living in Surveillance Societies" (LiSS). We now have a very good
>(c.33%) chance of receiving funding. This proposal is effectively for a
>European 'network of networks' on the social study of surveillance and
>security bringing together representatives from the many different
>European projects, programmes and research networks in these areas, and
>those who remain unconnected - which will hopefully be able to link in
>to other research networks around the world, in particular, 'The New
>Transparency' major collaborative research initiative in Canada.
>
>There will be four basic work areas within this network:
>1. Living in the Surveillance Age - examining citizens' everyday
>experiences of, and attitudes towards surveillance;
>2. Surveillance, Safety and Security - examining the relationship
>between surveillance and crime and terrorism-prevention;
>3. Surveillance and Commerce - examining the surveillance
>relationships of the state, the private sector and citizens;
>4. Public Policy and the Regulation of Surveillance - examining
>governmental and public policy developments in surveillance.
>
>Some of you may well have been consulted already. In the second stage,
>we need to have a vastly expanded number of potenital members. There are
>particular concerns within this programme to:
>
>1. develop a better gender balance (in this case, more female
>participants);
>2. encourage 'Earl Stage Researchers' (those still within ten years of
>having been awarded a PhD);
>3. involve those from the EU accession countries (new and potential
>member states);
>4. involve 'peripheral' nations, particularly those in the Western
>Balkans.
>
>We have so far indentified potential representatives from 18 nations,
>but no-one from the following:
>
>Austria, Croatia, Cyprus, Estonia, FYR Macedonia, Iceland, Ireland,
>Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg , Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Sweden,
>Turkey
>
>We would welcome self-nominations or the names of important proven or
>up-and-coming researchers (in or outside universities) in the fields of
>surveillance and security studies, especially those that fit into the
>above categories. If your country is not on the list, it may well be
>that we have already listed you, but if you are interested and to make
>sure that you are considered, do contact me!
>
>Please provide a name, affiliation (and contact e-mail if you have it),
>plus any details of how the nominee fits into any of the categories
>above, to:
