Abstract

Panoptikon/gözetim uygulamalarının tarihi oldukça eski olmasına rağmen, günümüz dünyasında bazı özel biçimler almış ve özellikle bireyselleşme ve bürokratik örgütlenmeye dayanarak rutin ve sistematik hale gelmiştir. Bütünü gözetlemek anlamına gelen Panoptikon, mükemmel gözetleme ile devlet mekanizmalarını toplumun bütününe yaymaktadır. Günümüz teknolojisi gözetleme ve insanları kamusal ve özel alanda izleme odaklıdır. İleri teknolojiler şeffaflık, yönetişim, demokrasi gibi söylemleri güçlendirirken aynı zamanda mahremiyet kavramının alanını sorgulamaya açmaktadır. Bu kapsamda çalışmanın amacı Bentham ve Foucault’ta önemli bir konuma gelen Panoptikonu demokrasinin işbirlikçi aracı olarak ortaya koyarak realiteden kurgusala doğru kavramsal bir çerçeve sunmaktır. Kurgusal kısımda incelenmek üzere, popüler kültürde panoptikonla ilgili önemli ve dikkat çekici yazılı ve görsel çalışmalar seçilmiştir. Seçilen kurgusal eserler: Suzanne Collins'in Açlık Oyunları (2010), Cory Doctorow'un Little Brother”ı (2008) ve Jonathan Nolan tarafından yazılan ve yönetilen Person of Interest dizisidir.

PANOPTICON: A REVIEW FROM REALITY TO FICTIONAL ON THE AXIS OF DEMOCRACY

Abstract

Although panopticon / surveillance practices are as old as human history, they have taken some special forms in the modern world and have become routine and systematic, especially on the basis of individualization and bureaucratic organization. Panopticon, which means to watch over the whole, spreads state mechanisms to society with perfect surveillance. Today's technology is focused on surveillance and people watching public and private space. Today's advanced technologies are strengthening the discourse such as transparency, governance and democracy, while at the same time opening up the question of the concept of privacy. The intention of working in this context is to present a conceptual framework to reality in terms of fiction by presenting Panopticon as a collaborative tool of democracy, which has an important position in Bentham and Foucault. In the fictional part, important and remarkable written and visual works related to panopticon in popular culture are mentioned. Films selected by study: Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games (2010), Cory Doctorow's Little Brother (2008), and Person of Interest, written and directed by Jonathan Nolan.
