Contemporary Issues in Law Enforcement provides students with a
highly contemporary collection of readings that articulate the
complexity of modern policing. The anthology provides readers with
articles that have been published since the turn of the
twenty-first century and that demonstrate the richness of
contemporary policing research. Employing a thoroughly academic
approach, the book encourages students to consider the impact of
the twentieth century on modern law enforcement, police and youth,
the role police play in a democratic society, the intersection of
police, politics, and minority populations, and the future of the
administration of justice. Students read articles that discuss
police professionalism, youth perceptions of police, questions of
legitimacy and models for building legitimacy, and how law
enforcement must contend with a society that harbors deeply divided
opinions on the police. Each article is complemented by a brief
introduction and discussion questions to add context and spark
meaningful conversation. Designed to push the conversation forward
on a critical and timely topic, Contemporary Issues in Law
Enforcement is an excellent resource for courses and programs in
criminology and criminal justice.
