Policing in Israel presents important advances in Israeli police
science during the past decade. It demonstrates how empirical
research in countries outside the traditional research domains of
the United States, Europe, and Australia can provide comparative
legitimacy to key concepts and findings in policing. It also
addresses innovative questions in the study of police, showing that
there is much to learn about the police enterprise by looking to
Israel. The studies included in this book contribute to the
policing literature in three significant ways. They replicate
findings from English-speaking countries on key issues such as
hot-spots policing, thereby supporting the validity of the findings
and enabling a wider scope of generalization. Also, they utilize
unique Israeli conditions to address questions that are difficult
to test in other countries, such as in counterterrorism. Finally,
they ask innovative questions in the study of policing that are yet
to be addressed elsewhere. Aside from providing better knowledge
about policing in Israel, the broader advances in police science
that the book illustrates play an important role. It contributes to
major areas of contemporary interest in policing literature,
including crime control, police-community relationships, and
policing terrorism. Policing in Israel gives you not only a broad
picture of Israeli policing and police research in the past decade,
but also carries critical implications for policing scholars and
practitioners around the world.
