Book Synopsis European Police Forces and Law Enforcement in the First World War by : Jonas Campion
Download or read book European Police Forces and Law Enforcement in the First World War written by Jonas Campion and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-08 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a global history of civilian, military and gendarmerie-style policing around the First World War. Whilst many aspects of the Great War have been revisited in light of the centenary, and in spite of the recent growth of modern policing history, the role and fate of police forces in the conflict has been largely forgotten. Yet the war affected all European and extra-European police forces. Despite their diversity, all were confronted with transnational factors and forms of disorder, and suffered generally from mass-conscription. During the conflict, societies and states were faced with a crisis situation of unprecedented magnitude with mass mechanised killing on the battle field, and starvation, occupation, destruction, and in some cases even revolution, on the home front. Based on a wide geographical and chronological scope – from the late nineteenth century to the interwar years – this collection of essays explores the policing of European belligerent countries, alongside their empires, and neutral countries. The book’s approach crosses traditional boundaries between neutral and belligerent nations, centres and peripheries, and frontline and rear areas. It focuses on the involvement and wartime transformations of these law-enforcement forces, thus highlighting underlying changes in police organisation, identity and practices across this period.
Book Synopsis Policing and War in Europe by : Louis A. Knafla
Download or read book Policing and War in Europe written by Louis A. Knafla and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-03-30 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policing and War in Europe marks a new departure in Criminal Justice History. These seven chapter essays, together with the reviews of twelve major works in the area, establish the series as a major forum for exploring new areas of research in the criminal justice area in its historical, criminological, legal, and social aspects. Common themes and issues that emerge from the study of policing and warring from the perspectives of both the nation state and the local community are explored. Elaine Reynolds and Barry Godfrey examine the daily work of nightwatchmen, and private and public police in bringing order to the streets in times of peace and war. Mark Clapson and Clive Emsley examine the problem of the policeman's image in the culture of his community, and Richard Ireland illustrates how scientific advances in crime detection brought the stereotyping of criminals rather than their arrest and conviction. Michael Broers and David Smith reveal the dramatic impact that world war brought to the problem of policing occupied territory, while Simon Kitson demonstrates the dangers that can occur when the civilian police are used to invigilate racist policies of a totalitarian regime. An important resource for scholars, students, and other researchers involved with legal, political, and military history, criminal justice studies, sociology and criminology, and criminal law.

Book Synopsis Policing New Risks in Modern European History by : Xavier Rousseaux
Download or read book Policing New Risks in Modern European History written by Xavier Rousseaux and published by Palgrave Pivot. This book was released on 2015-12-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authorities often fear societal change as it implies finding a new balance to live together within society. Whether it is defined by economic, political, social or cultural factors, the transformation of life in society is considered by authorities as a 'risk' that needs to be framed and controlled. The state's response to this situation of transformation can be analysed through the prism of the police. Informally or not, police systems adapt their regulatory frameworks, their structures and their practices in order to respond risks, new threats and new rules. This process, which is mostly of a contemporary nature, is also deeply historic. Analysing it on the long run is therefore particularly relevant. From the late nineteenth-century until the second half of the twentieth-century, Policing New Risks in Modern European History provides a panorama of political and police reactions to the 'risks' of societal change in a Western European perspective, focusing on Belgium, France, and The Netherlands, but also colonial perspectives.
Book Synopsis Exporting British Policing During the Second World War by : Clive Emsley
Download or read book Exporting British Policing During the Second World War written by Clive Emsley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exporting British Policing is a comprehensive study of British military policing in liberated Europe during the Second World War. Preventing and detecting thefts, receiving and profiteering together with the maintenance of order in its broadest sense are, in the peacetime world, generally confided to the police. However, the Second World War witnessed the use of civilian police to create a detective division of the British Army's Military Police (SIB), and the use of British civilian police, alongside American police, as Civil Affairs Officers to restore order and civil administration. Part One follows the men of the SIB from their pre-war careers to confrontations with mafiosi and their investigations into widespread organised crime and war crimes during which they were constantly hampered by being seen as a Cinderella service commanded by 'temporary gentlemen'. Part Two focuses on the police officers who served in Civil Affairs who tended to come from higher ranks in the civilian police than those who served in SIB. During the war they occupied towns with the assault troops, and then sought to reorganise local administration; at the end of the war in the British Zones of Germany and Austria they sought to turn both new Schutzmänner and police veterans of the Third Reich into British Bobbies. Using memoirs and anecdotes, Emsley critically draws on the subjective experiences of these police personnel, assessing the successes of these wartime efforts for preventing and investigating crimes such as theft and profiteering and highlighting the importance of historical precedent, given current difficulties faced by international policing organizations in enforcing democratic police reform in post-conflict societies.
Book Synopsis Crime, Police, and Penal Policy by : Clive Emsley
Download or read book Crime, Police, and Penal Policy written by Clive Emsley and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-07-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did ideas about crime and criminals change in Europe from around 1750 to 1940? How did European states respond to these changes with the development of police and penal institutions? Clive Emsley addresses these questions using recent research on the history of crime and criminal justice in Europe. Exploring the subject chronologically, he addresses the forms of offending, the changing interpretations and understandings of that offending at both elite and popular levels, and how the emerging nation states of the period responded to criminal activity by the development of police forces and the refinement of forms of punishment. The book focuses on the comparative nature in which different states studied each other and their institutions, and the ways in which different reformers exchanged ideas and investigated policing and penal experiments in other countries. It also explores the theoretical issues underpinning recent research, emphasising that the changes in ideas on crime and criminals were neither linear nor circular, and demonstrating clearly that many ideas hailed as new by contemporary politicians and in current debate on crime and its 'solutions', have a very long and illustrious history.

Book Synopsis A Short History of Police and Policing by : Clive Emsley
Download or read book A Short History of Police and Policing written by Clive Emsley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The police are constantly under scrutiny. They are criticized for failings, praised for successes, and hailed as heroes for their sacrifices. Starting from the premise that every society has norms and ways of dealing with transgressors, A Short History of Police and Policing traces the evolution of the multiple forms of 'policing' that existed in the past. It examines the historical development of the various bodies, individuals, and officials who carried these out in different societies, in Europe and European colonies, but also with reference to countries such as ancient Egypt, China, and the USA. By demonstrating that policing was never the exclusive dominion of the police, and that the institution of the police, as we know it today, is a relatively recent creation, Professor Emsley explores the idea and reality of policing, and shows how an institution we now call 'the police' came to be virtually universal in our modern world.
Book Synopsis The Policing of Politics in the Twentieth Century by : Mark Mazower
Download or read book The Policing of Politics in the Twentieth Century written by Mark Mazower and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the police has, from its beginnings, been ambiguous, even janus-faced. This volume focuses on one of its controversial aspects by showing how the police have been utilized in the past by regimes in Europe, the USA and the British Empire to check political dissent and social unrest. Ideologies such as anti-Communism emerge as significant influences in both democracies and dictatorships. And by shedding new light on policing continuities in twentieth-century Germany and Italy, as well as Interpol, this volume questions the compatibility of democratic government and political policing.

Book Synopsis Peacebuilding and police reform in the new Europe: lessons from Kosovo by : Dr. Thomas Feltes
Download or read book Peacebuilding and police reform in the new Europe: lessons from Kosovo written by Dr. Thomas Feltes and published by Sociedad Mexicana de Criminología capítulo Nuevo León. This book was released on 2008-01-08 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract Police Reform in countries in transition is closely connected to peacekeeping and peacebuilding. The article discusses successes and failures, and the role of police, using Kosovo as an example. It is essential to know whether strategies, structures, and methods of military and police interventions are working, and we need to know whether the reform of administration, police and judiciary in the aftermath of an international intervention is sustainable. As peace and justice go together, the role of police reform in the context of the reform of the judiciary is discussed. There is an open clash between the mainstream international understanding of what a “just society” or a society, functioning under the “rule of law” is or should be on one side, and the local understanding of the members of a society, who survived different kinds of suppression and war over years or centuries, often by building up their own informal structures and their own rules of living together. Key words: Case study, Learning, Peace.
Download or read book Policing the Future written by Hoogenboom and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-14 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International policing is a neglected area of interest. As the world gets smaller due to political, economic, social and technological developments, an evident need arises to understand the implications of (inter)national policing. On both national and international levels, policing is undergoing drastic changes as it continuously adapts itself to changes in society and new forms of crime. This collection of papers addresses two central themes - community policing and organisational crime - and brings together insights and experiences on crime, law enforcement and cooperation from both the academic and the professional policing world. Moreover, the various contributions derive from different countries (both the East and the West) and different institutions such as the Council of Europe and the United Nations.
