Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Hardback. The cop on the beat, the campus police officer, the highway patrolman, the undercover DEA agent, the industrial security guard - these are only a few of those who make up today's American policing organisations. Their work take…s them to city mean streets, to remote rural villages, idyllic college campuses, the halls of Congress, and the trading floors of financial centres. How did America's police forces take on their present diversity, and what are the social, political, legal, and technological factors that effect them today? This book reveals the forces that shaped, and shape, the character of contemporary police agencies. Eleven essays examine the history of policing in the 19th and 20th centuries; the organisation of police in the US and abroad; relations between federal, state, and local police agencies; private police and security organisations; police and crime control; problem solving and community policing; and the effect of technological advances. Historians, criminologists, sociologists, and legal scholars - from both sides of the Atlantic - offer a multidisciplinary collection of essays that provides a critical overview of modern police and police organisations. Unionisation, internal review, legal constraints, alternative crime control approaches, and community relations are only a few of the issues discussed as the future of police organisation is considered. With References, Author Index and Subject Index. 606pp. lge. 8vo. h/back. Vg+ in Vg+ dw. A heavy book which will require additional postage, particularly if shipped overseas.
