Understanding Police Use of Force: Officers, Suspects, and Reciprocity (Cambridge Studies in Criminology) Book

Although most police activities do not involve the use of force, those that do reflect important patterns of interaction between officer and citizen. This book examines those patters. It begins with a brief survey of prior research, and then goes on to present new data and findings. Among the new data are the force factor applied and the sequential order of incidents of force. The authors also examine police use of force from the suspect's perspective. In analyzing their data they put forward a new conceptual framework, the Authority Maintenance Theory, for examining and assessing police use of force.Read More
