Accountability of Policing provides a contemporary and wide-ranging
examination of the accountability and governance of 'police' and
'policing'. Debates about 'who guards the guards' are among the
oldest and most protracted in the history of democracy, but over
the last decade we have witnessed important changes in how policing
and security agencies are governed, regulated and held to account.
Against a backdrop of increasing complexity in the local, national
and transnational landscapes of 'policing', political, legal,
administrative and technological developments have served to alter
regimes of accountability. The extent and pace of these changes
raises a pressing need for ongoing academic research, analysis and
debate. Bringing together contributions from a range of leading
scholars, this book offers an authoritative and comprehensive
analysis of the shifting themes of accountability within policing.
The contributions explore questions of accountability across a
range of dimensions, including those 'individuals' and
'institutions' responsible for its delivery, within and between the
'public' and 'private' sectors, and at 'local', 'national' and
'transnational' scales of jurisdiction. They also engage with the
concept of 'accountability' in a broad sense, bringing to the
surface the various meanings that have become associated with it
and demonstrating how it is invoked and interpreted in different
contexts. Accountability of Policing is essential reading for
academics and students involved in the study of policing, criminal
justice and criminology and will also be of great interest to
practitioners and policymakers.
