In recent years the history of police and policing has become a key
area of debate across a range of disciplines: criminology,
sociology, political science and history. This authoritative series
brings together the most important and influential English-language
scholarship in the field, arranged chronologically across four
volumes. The series includes articles on the shifting meaning of
'police', the growth of bureaucratic policing during the late
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, consolidation in the twentieth
century, and the international diffusion of export models and
practices. The texts included come from a range of disciplines and
chart the recent debates from traditional Whig history, revisionist
work published during the last quarter of the twentieth century,
and subsequent reassessments. Each volume is edited by a historian
recognised as an authority in the area, and features an
introductory essay which explains the key changes in the period and
the significance of the selected articles and essays. The series
provides a valuable resource for scholars new to the area as well
as for those who may have overlooked an important essay or article
published in an edited collection, or in a journal with limited
circulation or from a discipline that they might not normally
consult.
