| Summary: | Drawing upon police statistics, this paper explores the impacts of
the videosurveillance cameras (CCTV) installed in November 2014 in the
Pâquis neighborhood in Geneva. It focuses on the evolution of
criminality within the filmed perimeter and nearby settings. This analysis
completes a previous article on the perceived safety of residents (Klauser
and Kaenzig, 2017). In line with former studies, our results underline the
limited preventive effects of the CCTV system. The analysis shows that
cameras are inducing criminality displacement, mainly of drug trafficking.
Overall, this study provides a differentiated and complex image of CCTV
systems as instruments of territorialization of monitored areas. |
