This book provides a unique insight into the way policing is
performed. By embracing both organizational management issues as
well as operational police business such as crime reduction and
detection, firearms, disorder, organised crime and terrorism, it
provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary police theory and
practice.Focusing on the implementation of policing, this book
discusses the themes that make police organisations effective (or
otherwise) with particular emphasis on the complexity of
implementing strategy and tactics in contemporary society.
Considering how the police can differ between and within agencies,
Kirby critically determines why effective policing takes place as
well as explaining why unintended consequences can occur. Supported
by interviews with senior police officers and academics in the UK,
Australia, Netherlands and the US, this book provides a rich source
of case studies exploring a wide range of issues including
accountability, organisational culture, decision making and the
policing of major incidents at both senior and practitioner
level.This book will be relevant internationally to scholars of
criminology and policing, police practitioners and policymakers.
