Keeping an eye on the prize

First awarded in 1964, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 researchers have received four Molson Prizes, including, most recently, John McGarry (Political Studies) in 2016. The other three are John Deutsch (Economics, 1973), Donald Akenson (History, 1996) and Thomas Courchene (Economics, 1999). Dr. Lyon also joins the likes of Marshall McLuhan, Ian Hacking, Charles Taylor and Janice Gross Stein as previous winners. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�The illustrious list of previous prize-winners includes several whom I hold in very high esteem and from whom I have learned much,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Dr. Lyon (Sociology), the Director of the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 Surveillance Studies Centre. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�I was thrilled to get the call, of course, but immediately started thinking of all those with whom I work 카지노 게임 컬렉션� colleagues, PhD students and postdocs 카지노 게임 컬렉션� not to mention family, to whom I owe so much for inspiration and support. So, the Molson Prize is a gift 카지노 게임 컬렉션� it카지노 게임 컬렉션�s grace. And I카지노 게임 컬렉션�m deeply grateful.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

Dr. Lyon카지노 게임 컬렉션�s early work focused on historical sociology of secularization, but the 1980s hype about a microelectronics revolution and the information society started to redefine his career path. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Working on a book about this, it dawned on me that some of the most portentous issues seemed to be underplayed 카지노 게임 컬렉션� surveillance being the one that really struck me hardest. Why? Because all of us were rapidly being pulled into contexts in which our ordinary lives were under scrutiny in new ways. Soon I was working with a group called REGIS 카지노 게임 컬렉션� Research and Ethics Group in Informatics and Society 카지노 게임 컬렉션� and teaching a course on 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Information Technology and Society카지노 게임 컬렉션� for the UK카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Open 카지노게임사이트 that obliged me to dig deeper into both the social and the technical issues as they touch on our very humanness.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

Two of Dr. Lyon카지노 게임 컬렉션�s most influential books,  and , are generally regarded as two of the most significant tomes when it comes to surveillance studies, and the  is quickly becoming a standard. The three books pull together important sociotechnical research findings in a readable style and in ways that highlight the impact of surveillance on everyday social relationships 카지노 게임 컬렉션� how we are 카지노 게임 컬렉션�socially sorted카지노 게임 컬렉션� 카지노 게임 컬렉션� and on our hopes for fairness and freedom. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�I suppose I카지노 게임 컬렉션�m a pioneer because, learning from others, I made vital connections at an opportune moment,카지노 게임 컬렉션� he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�And if I카지노 게임 컬렉션�m a leader it카지노 게임 컬렉션�s because I believe in the primacy of relationships in practice as well as in theory; we depend on each other in profound ways. I respect and, yes, love those with whom I work.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

Along with the Molson Prize, Dr. Lyon has been honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Sociological Association (2007), as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (2008), with an Honorary doctorate from the Università Della Svizzera Italiana (2016) and the International Surveillance Studies Network Distinguished Contribution Award in Aarhus, Denmark (2018). 

With the field of surveillance always evolving and changing, Dr. Lyon says he will continue his important work and is looking to join forces with researchers in many disciplines from around the world. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�The great joy of the past two decades has been collaborative research on surveillance; working together in an increasingly international team. My hope is to see this furthered, consolidated and maybe to see a similar song played in a different key. Surveillance Studies is multi-disciplinary, including computing, but we also need to become more fully interdisciplinary, working with colleagues in software engineering, data science and analytics.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�We also have to widen and deepen our international understanding, especially as distinctive surveillance systems now originate a long way from Silicon Valley 카지노 게임 컬렉션� think China and India, among others. If I can continue to be part of this 카지노 게임 컬렉션� while leaving plenty of time for family 카지노 게임 컬렉션� I카지노 게임 컬렉션�ll be delighted. And I shall persist in pressing for change at the most basic level 카지노 게임 컬렉션� asking first what in surveillance will foster human flourishing 카지노 게임 컬렉션� rather than starting with supposed technological, political or economic priorities.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
