James A. Conser, Professor Emeritus,<br />

By examining the influence of social, political,<br />
economic and cultural forces on the evolution<br />
of modern law enforcement, this updated<br />
Third Edition discusses the struggle between<br />
existing conventions in law enforcement and<br />
today’s push for reform. This book is an ideal<br />
introduction to law enforcement and goes<br />
beyond discussions of local policing to examine<br />
how forces like technology, privatization,<br />
and the threat of terrorism are affecting law<br />
enforcement on local, state, and national levels.<br />
Students will learn how these diverse and<br />
unpredictable forces are shaping the future of law enforcement in the United States, and will come away<br />
with the ability to think critically about law enforcement issues.<br />
