Download or read book The Security Field written by Matt Bowden and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How crime and security are governed has become a critical issue in criminology over the first quarter of the twenty-first century. Today, we see a broader landscape of regulatory players who are involved in the control and management of crime, whether in crime prevention, safety in the community or in providing private security services. The Security Field: Crime Control, Power and Symbolic Capital gets to grips with these changes and argues that this forms an emerging field in which different players appear to compete and co-operate but are ultimately vying to shape and order the field. This book draws on new thinking in the social sciences on questions of crime, fear and security and contributes to the expanding interest on the sociology and criminology of security by offering a Bourdieusian approach to plural policing and the everyday political economy of security. Drawing from Bourdieu’s concept of field, this book builds a theory of the security field based upon a series of in-depth interviews with security actors such as senior police officers, NGOs, private security professionals, government officials and community safety workers in Ireland. It demonstrates how security producers compete for cultural capital in its many forms – as data, information and relationships – and ultimately as a way of cementing their positions in this emerging field. It shows the dominant power of the formal police and central government in shaping and ordering this relational space. In doing so, The Security Field: Crime Control, Power and Symbolic Capital builds an empirical case from three distinct areas of security production: urban security, community safety and the connections between regulated private security and public crime prevention. It explores the challenges of securitisation in respect of public safety, security and rights and the way in which social problems such as drug use, homelessness and urban marginality are recast as ‘security’ concerns. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, urban studies and security studies.

Download or read book Private Security written by Charles P. Nemeth and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 1401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few textbooks available that outline the foundation of security principles while reflecting the modern practices of private security as an industry. Private Security: An Introduction to Principles and Practice takes a new approach to the subject of private sector security that will be welcome addition to the field. The book focuses on the recent history of the industry and the growing dynamic between private sector security and public safety and law enforcement. Coverage will include history and security theory, but emphasis is on current practice, reflecting the technology-driven, fast-paced, global security environment. Such topics covered include a history of the security industry, security law, risk management, physical security, Human Resources and personnel, investigations, institutional and industry-specific security, crisis and emergency planning, critical infrastructure protection, IT and computer security, and more. Rather than being reduced to single chapter coverage, homeland security and terrorism concepts are referenced throughout the book, as appropriate. Currently, it vital that private security entities work with public sector authorities seamlessly—at the state and federal levels—to share information and understand emerging risks and threats. This modern era of security requires an ongoing, holistic focus on the impact and implications of global terror incidents; as such, the book’s coverage of topics consciously takes this approach throughout. Highlights include: Details the myriad changes in security principles, and the practice of private security, particularly since 9/11 Focuses on both foundational theory but also examines current best practices—providing sample forms, documents, job descriptions, and functions—that security professionals must understand to perform and succeed Outlines the distinct, but growing, roles of private sector security companies versus the expansion of federal and state law enforcement security responsibilities Includes key terms, learning objectives, end of chapter questions, Web exercises, and numerous references—throughout the book—to enhance student learning Presents the full range of career options available for those looking entering the field of private security Includes nearly 400 full-color figures, illustrations, and photographs. Private Security: An Introduction to Principles and Practice provides the most comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of modern security issues and practices on the market. Professors will appreciate the new, fresh approach, while students get the most "bang for their buck," insofar as the real-world knowledge and tools needed to tackle their career in the ever-growing field of private industry security. An instructor’s manual with Exam questions, lesson plans, and chapter PowerPoint® slides are available upon qualified course adoption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brief introduction to the security industry for those considering work in the security field.

So You Want to be a Security Guard discusses the realities of the security industry. Topics discussed include salary, contracts, job duties, training, finding a job, stress, and more. Before you take any steps toward signing up for a security class, you should read this book so you understand what lies ahead for you. Mr. Figueroa shares some of his own experiences as a security officer to teach you what you can expect if you enter the field of protective services whether as an armed or unarmed security guard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." -Helen KellerDanger is around us all the time. If we feel secure it is because we have chosen to ignore the threat or we feel we have taken steps to reduce the threat. Everything we do, however, is merely a deterrent. There are no guarantees. Threat is always present. It is simply a matter of degree. Threats come in many forms and they all eat away at our fundamental sense of security. Personal and professional security focuses on awareness and preparation. Knowledge is power. Those who are aware and prepared are far more likely to survive sudden, unexpected threats. Luck as they say, is when preparation meets opportunity.What does it take to be a prepared security professional? The terrorist attacks on United States soil on September 11, 2001 illustrate how crucial it is that security be prepared and effective. Those attacks happened because we let our guard down, and the ripple effects have altered our society forever. How great a price must we pay in terms of reduced civil liberties to feel safe now? Such questions may be difficult to define but the fundamental duties and responsibilities of security officers are not. If we expect to overcome threats we must all be on the same page. That is why this book is an important tool in societys ongoing mission to raise the bar in the security profession. Preparation requires training and the journey begins here. -Michael James Jaquish
