Dear Aoir's, the deadline is coming closer and I wanted to get this on the list for some time.. now I at least make a start... In Maastricht I attented two sessions on surveillance and one on space... all three of them dealing with interestin and important issues.... some overlapping....as in the end it is some form of space and its elements that is surveilled.... anyhow.. for this years conference I would like to propose some kind of panel on these matters to gather some of the ideas around and discuss open questions that some of you may have on this... what are the interesting fields of research and problems ahead in this regard...internet surveillance and surveillance with and over the internet will probably a big issues in the next years......What are the concepts to discuss this, policies to be aware of and possible actions against this.... to focus this wide field of research it might be interesting to give such a panel a second focus , namely that of space... .. conceptions of space ..... possibilities to create social space under the impact of surveillance... cyberspace as a place to hide or not....??? Would some of you be interested in such a panel... session...?? If so, let me know personally.... share your ideas and what you think..... we then can take it from there and develop the idea further.... best wishes ... nilz
