abstract="Surveillance practices, both state and non-state in origin, are deployed increasingly to solve social problems beyond the traditional domains of criminal justice and national security, including public health concerns. Although such &quot;protective&quot; forms of surveillance are proffered by the state as beneficial for those under surveillance, they nonetheless retain coercive dimensions in practice and require the labeling of a group as &quot;risky&quot; in order to justify their use. Following Shelley Bielefeld's (2018) observations about protective state surveillance as a form of paternalism, and Jennifer Musto's (2016) notion of &quot;carceral protectionism,&quot; this article uses a case study of the electronic monitoring of people with cognitive impairments to identify the carceral features of paternalistic surveillance and to explore how this practice is justified. I make the argument that, specifically through targeted vulnerability and distortions of risk, paternalistic surveillance practices can operate as a mode of carceral expansion.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
