Neuerscheinung | Urban (In)Security: Policing the Neoliberal Crisis

Vol­ker Eick And Ken­dra Bri­ken (Hg.); Red Quill Books

The neo­li­be­ra­liza­tion of poli­cing and the poli­cing of neo­li­be­ra­liza­tion are world­wide pheno­mena. While the first trend effects the orga­niza­tion of poli­cing, the second trend brings about new poli­cing stra­te­gies exe­cu­ted by state police, com­mer­cial secu­rity con­trac­tors and by non­pro­fit police forces. This volume for the first time brings toge­ther empi­ri­cal stu­dies com­pa­ring poli­cing stra­te­gies from Aus­tra­lia, Bri­tain, France, Ger­many, India, Lithua­nia, Swe­den and the United States.
