What is it that police and policing actually do? What are the
effects? And how are these effects mediated and experienced by
different people at different times and in different contexts?
Examining these questions, the contributors in this volume draw
attention to the centrality of police and policing to the project
of governance and the experience of being human in the contemporary
world. They seek to make sense of and counteract the contemporary
fetishization of police by problematizing their taken-for-granted
existence and understanding their impact on contemporary human
life. To this end, this volume provides a preliminary step in the
establishment of an anthropology of police and policing.
