Resumo do livro:
The 'city' as an object of criminological research mainly focuses on
certain districts or neighborhoods. Although 'ecological criminology' is a
well-known research field, empirical research concerning the mutual effects of
policing strategies and the urban society is scarce. Since a city is a place
where people encounter a variety of social processes, the need for more
empirical research is apparent. In this book, scholars - from different EU
Member States, Norway, and South Africa - focus on the social changes, the
problems police are confronted with, and the involvement of other public and
private police actors. The book takes a close look at several countries to find
out to what extent and how security issues are dealt with. It focuses
particularly on the discourse and the practice of police and other security actors
involved in 'policing in the city' and on the geographical characteristics of
policing security.
