Policing and police practices have changed dramatically since the
9/11 terrorist attacks and those changes have accelerated since the
summer of 2014 and the death of Michael Brown at the hands of
then-police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri. Since the
November 2016 election of Donald Trump as president, many law
enforcement practitioners, policy makers, and those concerned with
issues of social justice have had concerns that there would be
seismic shifts in policing priorities and practices at the federal,
state, county, and local and tribal levels that will have
significant implications for constitutional rights and civil
liberties protections, particularly for people of color. Perilous
Policing: Criminal Justice in Marginalized Communities provides a
much-needed interrogatory to law enforcement practices and policies
as they continue to evolve during this era of uncertainty and
anxiety. Key topics include the police and marginalized
populations, the use of technology to surveil individuals and
groups, the emergence of the Black Lives Matter movement and the
erosion of the police narrative, the use of force (particularly
deadly force) against people of color, the role of the police in
immigration enforcement, the "war on cops," and police
militarization. Thomas Nolan's critique of current practice and his
preliminary conclusions as to how to navigate contemporary policing
away from the pitfalls of discredited and counterproductive
practices will be of interest to advanced undergraduates and
graduate students in Policing, Criminology, Justice Studies, and
Criminal Justice programs, as well as to researchers, law
enforcement professionals, and police policy makers.
