Police in Contradiction: The Evolution of the Police Function in Society
J M Olivero
This book formulates a theory of the origin and evolution of the police function, using both historical and cross-cultural analysis. It suggests that the police institution has a double and contradictory function: at the same time, and in the same society, it seeks to be the agent of the people it polices and of the dominant class.
