Description
The Discourse of Police Interviews by Marianne Mason and Frances Rock explores how language is used in police interviews to investigate and prosecute crimes. This book examines leading debates, approaches, and topics in contemporary police interview research, including the sociolegal, psychological, and discursive framework of popular techniques like PEACE and Reid. It delves into the discursive practices of institutional representatives, such as police officers and interpreters, that can influence the construction and quality of linguistic evidence. The book situates the police interview within a complex criminal justice process, making it relevant to scholars and practitioners in fields like linguistic anthropology, interpreting studies, criminology, law, and sociology. By analyzing these topics, this book contributes to our understanding of how language is used in policing, shedding light on its significance in the investigation and prosecution of crimes.
