Dr Michael McCahill

I was born Glasgow, but raised in Hull. I completed my BA Sociology, MA Criminology, and PhD Sociology at the University of Hull. I have been teaching criminology and surveillance studies at the university for 23 years. My PhD and first research grant were both awarded by the ESRC. These ESRC-funded projects resulted in two prize-winning monographs. The Surveillance Web (2002), winner of the 2003 British Society of Criminology Book Prize, and Surveillance, Capital and Resistance (2014), winner of the 2015 Surveillance Studies Network Book Prize.
