Download or read book Trusting the Police written by Silvia Staubli and published by Transcript Verlag, Roswitha Gost, Sigrid Nokel u. Dr. Karin Werner. This book was released on 2017 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The police can be seen as a governmental institution or as an organizational body, where especially the work - effectiveness, or fairness in encounters - is valued. Through the combination of these approaches and the inclusion of social trust and criminal victimization, Silvia Staubli offers an understanding beyond existing literature on institutional trust and procedural fairness. Moreover, due to analyses for Eastern and Western Europe, she addresses experts from sociology, political science, criminology, and social anthropology equally. Beyond, the study offers an insight to the public on how public opinions towards institutions are shaped.

Book Policing Europe

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bill Hebenton
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 1995-03-20
  • ISBN : 1349239054
  • Pages : 247 pages

Download or read book Policing Europe written by Bill Hebenton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1995-03-20 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developments in European police co-operation have become sharply focused in the last few years. Policing Europe critically examines the historical development of forms of co-operation and their traditional justifications: terrorism, illegal immigration, drug trafficking and other cross-border crime. It is argued that a full understanding of the new policing of Europe needs to take account of the linking of such justifications with the more diffuse debate around removal of border controls and free movement of people. The book suggests that a new European policework is emerging, and examines the implications of this phenomenon.

Book Policing New Risks in Modern European History

Download or read book Policing New Risks in Modern European History written by Xavier Rousseaux and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authorities often fear societal change as it implies finding a new balance to live together within society. Whether it is defined by economic, political, social or cultural factors, the transformation of life in society is considered by authorities as a 'risk' that needs to be framed and controlled. The state's response to this situation of transformation can be analysed through the prism of the police. Informally or not, police systems adapt their regulatory frameworks, their structures and their practices in order to respond risks, new threats and new rules. This process, which is mostly of a contemporary nature, is also deeply historic. Analysing it on the long run is therefore particularly relevant. From the late nineteenth-century until the second half of the twentieth-century, Policing New Risks in Modern European History provides a panorama of political and police reactions to the 'risks' of societal change in a Western European perspective, focusing on Belgium, France, and The Netherlands, but also colonial perspectives.

Book The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice written by Paul Knepper and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical study of crime has expanded in criminology during the past few decades, forming an active niche area in social history. Indeed, the history of crime is more relevant than ever as scholars seek to address contemporary issues in criminology and criminal justice. Thus, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice provides a systematic and comprehensive examination of recent developments across both fields. Chapters examine existing research, explain on-going debates and controversies, and point to new areas of interest, covering topics such as criminal law and courts, police and policing, and the rise of criminology as a field. This Handbook also analyzes some of the most pressing criminological issues of our time, including drug trafficking, terrorism, and the intersections of gender, race, and class in the context of crime and punishment. The definitive volume on the history of crime, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of criminology, criminal justice, and legal history.

Book Democratic Policing in a Changing World

Download or read book Democratic Policing in a Changing World written by Peter K. Manning and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democratic policing today is a widely used approach to policing not only in Western societies but increasingly around the world. Yet it is rarely defined and it is little understood by the public and even by many of its practitioners. Peter K. Manning draws on political philosophy, sociology and criminal justice to develop a widely applicable fundamental conception of democratic policing. In the process he delineates today's relationship between democracy and policing. Democratic Policing in a Changing World documents the failure of police reform, showing that each new approach - such as crime mapping and 'hot spots' policing - fails to alter any fundamental practice and has in fact increased social inequalities. He offers a new and better approach for scholars, policy makers, police, governments and societies.

Book The Policing of Politics in the Twentieth Century

Download or read book The Policing of Politics in the Twentieth Century written by Mark Mazower and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the police has, from its beginnings, been ambiguous, even janus-faced. This volume focuses on one of its controversial aspects by showing how the police have been utilized in the past by regimes in Europe, the USA and the British Empire to check political dissent and social unrest. Ideologies such as anti-Communism emerge as significant influences in both democracies and dictatorships. And by shedding new light on policing continuities in twentieth-century Germany and Italy, as well as Interpol, this volume questions the compatibility of democratic government and political policing.

Book Policing Twentieth Century Ireland

Download or read book Policing Twentieth Century Ireland written by Vicky Conway and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth century was a time of rapid social change in Ireland: from colonial rule to independence, civil war and later the Troubles; from poverty to globalisation and the Celtic Tiger; and from the rise to the fall of the Catholic Church. Policing in Ireland has been shaped by all of these changes. This book critically evaluates the creation of the new police force, an Garda Síochána, in the 1920s and analyses how this institution was influenced by and responded to these substantial changes. Beginning with an overview of policing in pre-independence Ireland, this book chronologically charts the history of policing in Ireland. It presents data from oral history interviews with retired gardaí who served between the 1950s and 1990s, giving unique insight into the experience of policing Ireland, the first study of its kind in Ireland. Particular attention is paid to the difficulties of transition, the early encounters with the IRA, the policing of the Blueshirts, the world wars, gangs in Dublin and the growth of drugs and crime. Particularly noteworthy is the analysis of policing the Troubles and the immense difficulties that generated. This book is essential reading for those interested in policing or Irish history, but is equally important for those concerned with the legacy of colonialism and transition.
