The Police & Society : Touchtone Readings, Second Edition

This up-to-date collection provides multiple foundations for understanding some of the most compelling issues confronting both the police and society. The articles in this anthology serve as touchstones for one another-- measuring and questioning the value of each contribution to our understanding of the dynamic interrelationships between the police and society. Readers can use these articles as a blueprint for systematic inquiry: to identify background assumptions; to recognize how values influence questions raised; to determine if findings were relevant only in a particular context; to discover connections, mutual influences and divergences of opinion. Exposure to some of the best scholarship on the relationship between police and society serves as a benchmark for our own construction and perception of that connection.
