This book analyses the impact of Integrated Offender Management
(IOM) on contemporary policing and separates the rhetoric from the
reality. Drawing on a qualitative study within an English police
force over two years, this book examines the experiences of
prolific offenders, subject to IOM, and sheds light on the culture
and practice of the police and staff from other criminal justice
agencies, working within the scheme. While IOM has been judged to
have had initial successes in reducing the criminal activities of
prolific offenders, this book tests the validity of such claims,
and considers the apparent disjuncture between policy statements
made about the workings of IOM and how IOM policing operations are
realized on the ground. It makes a unique contribution to research
on police culture and practice, and multi-agency working in the
criminal justice system. An accessible and compelling read, this
book will appeal to policy makers, as well as students and scholars
of criminology, sociology policing, and politics.
