The New World of Police Accountability by Samuel Walker (2005, Trade Paperback)
New unused textbook. Does show some minor signs of shelf wear.
The New World of Police Accountability is the first book
to provide an original and comprehensive analysis of some of the most
important developments in policing over the past ten years. Esteemed
author Samuel Walker synthesizes the major developments in the area of
police accountability and argues that these developments represent a new
period in the history of police reform that promises to address the
historic problems of police abuse. This text assesses both the
achievements and limitations of police accountability and reshapes the
conventional wisdom on this topic. The book covers such issues as
federal law suits against the police, consent decrees, citizen oversight
of the police, and early intervention systems.
