Description
Summary:	This case study focuses on an ethnography conducted in a police closed-circuit television control room, undertaken in order to explore the ways in which gender stereotypes inform the thoughts and actions of closed-circuit television control room operators and thus the co-constructions of crime/deviance and sex/gender that result. How access was negotiated, including discussion of both informal and formal routes, is described, as is the research field: the police closed-circuit television control room setting. The research itself is then presented.
