Stéphane Leman-Langlois holds the Canada Research Chair on Surveillance and the Social Construction of Risk and is Professor of Criminology at the Laval University School of Social Work.



The growth of technology allows us to imagine entirely new ways of committing, combating and thinking about criminality, criminals, police, courts, victims and citizens. Technology offers not only new tools for committing and fighting crime, but new ways to look for, unveil, label crimes and new ways to know, watch, prosecute and punish criminals. This book attempts to disentangle the realities, the myths, the politics, the theories and the practices of our new, technology-assisted, era of crime and policing.
