In the past, defining municipal policing was easier as it
incorporated local authority duties, crime prevention and police
patrol. However in the contemporary setting, police resources are
regularly overstretched and novel ways of alleviating their
workloads are continually being sought. One method of achieving
this goal is by involving other people and technology to assist the
police in their everyday tasks. A system of partnership and
technology, underpinned by legislation, has made this ambition
possible. This book reviews how traditional municipal policing has
evolved in a number of European Union countries discussing topics
such as history, police civilianization, police auxiliaries,
community policing, surveillance, politics and governance, with
predictions as to what may lie ahead for municipal policing in the
EU. Municipal Policing in Europe provides an exclusive vista of the
evolving model of local policing in the EU member states at a time
when police forces are increasingly collaborating together.
The book applies a model of municipal policing to compare a number
of police systems in the European Union suggesting that in the
future local communities will have some form of police enforcement
mechanism that will not always include the sworn police officer.

Violence has always been, and is to this day, a primary cause of
tension and suffering the world over. More than half a million
people are murdered each year around the world, making homicide the
leading cause of death among people aged 15-44. The Oxford Textbook
of Violence Prevention brings together an international team of
experts to provide an extensive global account of the mortality and
morbidity burden caused by violence. It does this by examining the
causes of violence, and what can be done to prevent and reduce
violence. Divided into six sections, the textbook analyses how a
public health approach can help to prevent violence. This
multidisciplinary book tackles interpersonal violence in all its
forms. Early chapters describe epidemiology and consequences,
followed by chapters that present the current state of the evidence
in interventions. Policies for violence reduction are discussed,
and finally recommendations are made for researchers,
practitioners, and policy-makers. The Oxford Textbook of Violence
Prevention is an essential resource for anyone involved in seeking
to reduce the role of violence in modern society. The print edition
is complimented with 12 months free access to the online version.
Featuring the full comprehensive and authoritative text of the
book, the online edition has the added convenience and flexibility
of an online resource and is available on oxfordmedicine.com.
