The Courage to Commit: A Guide to De-escalating the Crisis of
Citizen-Police Relations is designed to inspire vital dialogue
regarding the United States' founding principles, its social
covenants, and the relationship between its police force and its
communities. Featuring diverse perspectives, the text illuminates
the needs to both enact significant changes in policing and examine
and fix police-citizen culture. The book considers the
characteristics that make up a good police officer, the place of
power in the actions of police officers, Sir Robert Peel' s
principles for police work, and the often-tenuous relationship
between the police and the community. It also addresses the role of
the police during turmoil, the use of force, conflict management,
crisis intervention, and de-escalation. Chapters examine the
importance of training and supervision for police-citizen
encounters, as well as police response to families in crisis. The
book discusses potential solutions and presents readers with a
framework for improved police-community relations. Throughout the
text, vignettes and case studies bring the material to life and
encourage lively discussion and debate. The Courage to Commit is an
essential textbook for courses and programs in policing and law
enforcement management and administration. It is also an ideal
resource for community members, community leaders, elected and
appointed officials, and all concerned citizens who are interested
in improving police-citizen relations.
