Description

Artur Ishkhanyan and Mane Hakobyan analyzed youth development under digital surveillance in 2026. Digital systems now act as developmental infrastructure, shaping how young people learn, relate, and form selves. The paper reads that fact through Vygotsky's lens, with side help from Foucault and Deleuze on power and control.

Surveillance, the authors argue, does not just watch youth; it rearranges the settings in which they grow. Three layers are traced: lived settings, system infrastructures, and future horizons. Tracking channels growth toward what can be read and predicted. Yet young people also push back, reshaping systems from inside. Policy and design should guard developmental dignity, fair knowledge, and youth co-authorship.
