Résumé
The paper investigates the public-private cooperation involved in CCTV surveillance at Geneva Airport. Emphasis is placed on the interacting forms of authority and expertise of five parties: the user(s), owner and supplier of the camera system, as well as the technical managers of the airport and the Swiss regulatory bodies in airport security. The paper thus also adresses a broader issue: the mediating role of expertise and the growing functional fragmentation of authority in contemporary security governance.
