| Summary: | "Snitch! is a study of intelligence informers - people who secretly supply information to a domestic state security agency. Going back through history, from the rise of the modern security state to today's ongoing war on terror, Snitch! addresses the reasons people, such as Ronald Reagan or Walt Disney, choose to inform, why the state needs informers, and how information is both gathered and transmitted." "The wide-ranging research conducted by Steve Hewitt details both the practical and political aspects of informing, supported by numerous examples from various countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and the former Soviet Union. Hewitt argues that although the scale of the use of informers by domestic security agencies may differ from nation to nation, the nature of their use and the impact on those targeted do not. Often, the targets of this type of surveillance, especially in democratic societies, are individuals or groups marginalized in some way due to their political beliefs, gender, ethnicity, social class, or religion."--Jacket |

"The wide-ranging research conducted by Steve Hewitt details both the practical and political aspects of informing, supported by numerous examples from various countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and the former Soviet Union. Hewitt argues that although the scale of the use of informers by domestic security agencies may differ from nation to nation, the nature of their use and the impact on those targeted do not. Often, the targets of this type of surveillance, especially in democratic societies, are individuals or groups marginalized in some way due to their political beliefs, gender, ethnicity, social class, or religion."--Jacket</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Intelligence service</subfield><subfield code="v">Case studies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Informers</subfield><subfield code="v">Case studies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">War on Terrorism, 2001-2009</subfield><subfield code="v">Case studies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Service des renseignements</subfield><subfield code="v">Études de cas.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Guerre contre le terrorisme, 2001-2009</subfield><subfield code="v">Études de cas.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">TRUE CRIME</subfield><subfield code="x">Espionage.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Freedom & Security</subfield><subfield code="x">Intelligence.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Informers</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Intelligence service</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Geheimdienst</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Informant</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/7631267-7</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="647" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">War on Terrorism</subfield><subfield code="d">(2001-2009)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="0">(OCoLC)fst01754980</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39Qhp4vB9HVBC9J8MqvQ8QwjK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">2001-2009</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Geschichte.</subfield><subfield code="2">swd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Case studies</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Snitch!

New York : Continuum, ©2010. 1 online resource (viii, 209 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 151-202) and index. Introduction -- 'Inherent in the conditions of human society': the nature of informing -- Informing history -- Famous informers -- The informer states -- Informers in the 'war on terror' -- Conclusion: living in the informer age. "Snitch! is a study of intelligence informers - people who secretly supply information to a domestic state security agency. Going back through history, from the rise of the modern security state to today's ongoing war on terror, Snitch! addresses the reasons people, such as Ronald Reagan or Walt Disney, choose to inform, why the state needs informers, and how information is both gathered and transmitted." "The wide-ranging research conducted by Steve Hewitt details both the practical and political aspects of informing, supported by numerous examples from various countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and the former Soviet Union. Hewitt argues that although the scale of the use of informers by domestic security agencies may differ from nation to nation, the nature of their use and the impact on those targeted do not. Often, the targets of this type of surveillance, especially in democratic societies, are individuals or groups marginalized in some way due to their political beliefs, gender, ethnicity, social class, or religion."--Jacket Print version record.
