This book examines communication between police and residents of a
designated crime 'hotspot' community in the Global South. It looks
at communicative realities within a marginalised community in the
twin island republic of Trinidad and Tobago and explores how police
and the individuals that they police purposefully assign categories
to each other before, during and after interactions. It also
examines the relations between the police and the community and how
power is manifested through authored or assigned labels, stigmas
and stereotypes. Overall, it suggests alternative strategies to
address problematic police and community relations and provides
another standpoint from which communicative redress between police
and residents of marginalized communities in the Global South can
be approached.
