Critiquing Evidence-Based Policing in Britain

Více o knize

The book explores the rise of Evidence Based Policing (EBP) in the UK, analyzing its impact on policing practices and institutional changes. Drawing on Michel Foucault's theories, it presents a critical history of EBP, linking it to broader themes of managerialism and neoliberalism. The author argues that EBP is not a purely objective tool for policing policy but rather a contested concept that serves specific political purposes. This examination is relevant for readers interested in policing, critical criminology, and political science.
