Description

Explore the evolving landscape of law enforcement with The Rebirth of Private Policing by Les Johnston, published by Routledge. This academic work challenges the idea that policing is solely a public responsibility. Instead, Johnston demonstrates how it is an activity shared by a mix of public, private, and quasi-public agents. This book provides a deep look into the history of private policing while examining modern developments that impact society today. It is designed for readers interested in the sociology of policing and those seeking a better understanding of public-private relations in the late 20th century. By analyzing how different agencies interact, the text offers a comprehensive guide to the shifting roles within security and social control. Whether you are studying anthropology, sociology, or legal sciences, this book offers a detailed perspective on how private entities have become an integral part of the policing framework.
