The Banopticon (sometimes written as Ban-opticon) is a term coined by Paris School academic Didier Bigo used within an International Political Sociology approach to security studies to describe a situation where profiling technologies are used to determine who to place under surveillance. The term takes it name from Michel Foucault's notion of panopticon used in Discipline and Punish to describe a situation where observation is used as a disciplinary tool. According to Bigo the banopticon is said to have contributed towards the securitization of migration in Europe.
