Policing Images (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

As media interest in the police increases, the police themselves have placed increasing importance on ensuring that they are promoting, projecting, and protecting their image. This book is concerned to document and to explain this image work, the activities in which the police engage that construct and project images of policing. It raises important questions about the implications of police image work for both democratically accountable policing, and the wider transformations in society being brought about by the media and its management.
