This eclectic collection of contemporary and classical articles
examines a variety of operational and administrative issues in the
context of modern police work. It provides even coverage in terms
of both theoretical and applied perspectives, with an analytical
approach. In this regard, the reader is given a foundation as to
why the police operate as they do.
Gaines and Cordner's anthology offers the following distinctive
features:
* A number of articles on the community policing movement.
* A section addressing administrative issues. Critics of policing
have charged that antiquated management styles have hampered the
progress of community policing.
* The section on doing police work addresses a number of specific
operational issues.
* A strong section on ethics and deviance. Some critics charge
that community policing may result in increased levels of police
corruption and ethical violations.
* Articles that put the "problem solving" strategy of community
policing into perspective.
Thought-provoking introductions to each article and each section
guide the student and ease instruction by identifying and
explaining central issues, key concepts, and relationships among
topics. This gives internal cohesiveness and structure to the
selections. A comprehensive subject index is also provided.
