Title: Un-peeling tradition
Description: Un-Peeling Tradition: Contemporary Policing is about the relevance of current policing techniques to Australian society and its future development. It also considers the inherent resistance of the police to change. The various issues addressed are divided into five broad themes: The Crime Problem, Contemporary Issues, Managing the Police, Police and Society, and Police and Politics. The authors represent authorities in police theory and practice from as far apart as New York and Tasmania, London and Darwin. The value of this text lies in its interdisciplinary approach to the topics covered. It introduces the reader to some of the most urgent, controversial and perplexing questions in modern policing. Where is policing going? What will be its future role? How will it be controlled? In what sort of society will it have to operate? What sorts of new crimes might be faced and where and how is crime generated?
