Policing and Society: A Global Approach covers a wide range of topics related to policing, with strong sociological analysis and an emphasis on global concepts and issues. This well-organized, reader-friendly book includes comprehensive coverage of important issues such as police corruption, use of excessive force, and police subculture. The book's unique international approach includes guest-written "International Perspectives" and various case studies, examples, and analogies illustrating policing in the US and in other countries. Students are able to compare and understand policing methods, challenges, and solutions across nations and cultures and to develop a broader outlook on law enforcement worldwide. Policing and Society: A Global Approach reflects the current state of policing and where it will be in the coming years. With this book, students not only develop an understanding of law enforcement on local, regional, and national levels, but also gain a deeper appreciation of issues on a larger scale, in the international community. The text's combined global and sociological perspectives provide students with the knowledge and competence to better understand global law enforcement issues in a post 9/11 era. - Back cover.
