Description
Policing is evolving rapidly and becoming increasingly complex. As public, private, and municipal bodies engage in regulation and security provision, the traditional role of public police forces is being redefined.
This shift has led to the development of 'plural policing' systems, which are now a central issue within criminology and police studies worldwide. A growing body of research and theory has emerged to understand this phenomenon, but much of it remains rooted in Anglo-American perspectives.
This book provides a detailed comparative analysis of plural policing, drawing on empirical evidence from around the world. Edited by leading authorities in the field, it offers a valuable resource for scholars seeking to understand the nature and governance of plural policing systems.
