Policing the Police cover

The challenge of holding police to account in a fast-changing world is the subject of this much-needed new study from leading criminology professor Michael Rowe. Tackling important issues including ethics, governance, discipline, transparency and the impact of new technology and Evidence-Based Policing strategies, it sets out a bold new agenda for ensuring democratic and accountable policing in the modern day.

"This topical book achieves a holistic analysis of the shifting parameters of police accountability in the 21st century; it will be required reading for both students and scholars of policing studies." David Baker, University of Liverpool
“This very welcome book from a renowned policing scholar addresses urgent issues of inequality, privatisation, Big Data and AI innovation, which are affecting processes of police governance and accountability in new and complex ways. It is a ‘must-read’.” John McDaniel, University of Wolverhampton
