Description
For one/two-semester courses on Police/Community Relations, Police and Society, Policing within American Society, or Issues in Policing in two- and four-year and proprietary schools.
Substantive-yet accessible-this overview of police-community relations focuses on the importance of, and strategies for, positive interaction in dealing with the many turbulent issues which affect crime control in America today. It addresses a challenge that all criminal justice practitioners-police, courts, and corrections-must confront...the development and maintenance of meaningful relationships with one another and with the citizens they serve.
