I wrote a very brief post about post-panopticism recently but there’s substantial development of the concept on Beyond Modernity which is well worth a read. These critiques appear not to throw panopticism out but propose a development of the concept that variously recognise the effects of new technology and a more fuzzy/messy understanding of the workings of power and surveillance.
I’m keen to work up a critique of panopticism using Deleuze’s Rhizome.
Stay tuned.
