ABSTRACT
The preceding examples illustrate a blurring between the practices of the justice system and the everyday lives of ordinary people. My focus is on relatively small, mundane procedures and practices. These techniques exist in the shadow of large institutions like prisons; they are not ushered in with dramatic displays of state power, nor do they appear as significant
challenges to constitutional democracy. These are the more commonplace strategies used by both governmental, but even more likely, private organizations to "keep us in line," monitor our performance, and gather evidence.
