"After reading Schools Under Surveillance one is forever impacted by the gripping ethnographic moments of multiple school contexts where surveillance is embodied and resisted. This book is a must read for undergraduate and graduate students in sociology, anthropology, psychology and education interested in the issues of social control, culture, power and resistance in schools." (Contemporary Sociology) "A fascinating and sophisticated look at the structure of power relations present in the security practices of public education. Focusing on 'the other side' of school safety policies which typically do not fully consider the effects of various control mechanisms, Schools Under Surveillance represents a major addition to the literature that will undoubtedly be of great value to scholars, practitioners, and policy makers alike." - Henry Pontell (University of California, Irvine) "A thought-provoking anthology." (H-Education) "This volume's interdisciplinarity makes the collection a provocative and stimulating reflection on cultures of control but also provides a brilliant overview of creative forms of resistance." (Surveillance and Society) "Schools under Surveillance raises a set of important and critical questions about how public schools have become one of the most surveilled of contemporary spaces. Monahan and Torres have put together a fine collection of provocative work that captures the essence of these new school accountability regimes." - William G.
