Summary, etc. | Since the launch in 2014 of the Cameroon Intelligent City Project through the deployment of Chinese technologies produced by Huawei, the public space in Yaoundé has become a remotely monitored space. Police surveillance cameras capture individuals, objects in circulation and scenes occurring there. This technology is not a mere gadget of a smart city; it is a device that changes the relationship to space, individual behaviour, and law enforcement activity. Based on the Foucauldian and post-Foucauldian theses of panoptic surveillance, with 21st-century socio-technical innovations, this article analyses how Cameroon, to cope with the economy of hostile urban and border realities, is part of a project for the “agile transformation” of its security services. These are taking advantage of public spaces that have been reconfigured and reinvented, reaffirming their fundamental role in public security. |
