Description

The Rebirth of Private Policing by Routledge examines the evolving landscape of law enforcement beyond traditional public institutions. Les Johnston provides a comprehensive analysis of how policing has shifted from the exclusive domain of public personnel to a complex network involving public, private, and quasi-public agents. This academic sociology work traces the historical development of private policing, investigates contemporary trends shaping the industry, and explores the broader implications for both policing sociology and public-private sector relations in the modern era. Essential reading for students, researchers, and professionals seeking to understand the structural transformations reshaping security and law enforcement systems.

Key Features

The Rebirth of Private Policing traces the comprehensive history and modern developments of private policing across public, private, and quasi-public sectors.

Les Johnston's analysis examines the implications of private policing for sociology and public-private relations in contemporary society.

This Routledge academic title addresses key issues surrounding the privatisation of policing functions and institutional authority.

The book provides scholarly insight into how traditional public policing monopolies have evolved into mixed service delivery models.
