I'll Be Watching You: Can We Reconcile Privacy and Security?

Concordia University is pleased to announce the second annual President's Conference Series entitled Every Breath You Take. The three sessions will present exciting research by Concordia faculty on the complex social, political and technological relationship between individual privacy and public security. Join us for a day of discovery!

Third session

Professor Yasmin Jiwani and Professor Tim Schwab of the Department of Communication Studies will examine the tension between privacy rights and security threats in the context of race, gender and citizenship, as well as the role of media and documentary film in ‘making the private public'. Professor Shannon McSheffrey of the Department of History will provide historical and cultural context on issues of privacy and address the question of how privacy is related to the transformation of society.
