Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Police officers make thousands of important, life-changing decisions everyday. In order to promote and ensure justice, these decisions must be fair and even-handed. Police officers cannot think or act as if they are free to define what is legal and what is illegal or to decide who is inherently good and who is inherently bad. They must act in an ethical manner. Yet, police officers are given a limited amount of training in police ethics. Often times, it consists solely of a list of do's and don'ts. This book was written to emphasize the importance of police ethics. The authors seek to treat police officers as the intelligent and knowledgeable people that they are, instead of discussing what to do and what not to do. This book discusses various schools of ethical thought in a way that works from the ground up, moving from a general understanding toward practical applications. Readers will gain a workable understanding of ethics that can be applied to the entire gamut of situations they encounter on the street every day.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Light cock, owner's signature on front free endpaper, otherwise light wear; Dust Jacket sticker residue on spine, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover. ; Common Sense about Police Review is the first comparative study to consider both civilian and internal police review processes. Using survey research of police attitudes and citizen complaints compiled over fifteen years from police departments across the nation, Douglas Perez analyzes past and current review systems as a way to develop criteria for comparing three archetypal systems of police review: internal, external (civilian), and hybrid forms of the two. High media visibility of several events in recent years - the 1988 police riot in New York City's Tompkins Square, the 1991 videotaped beating of Rodney King, and the 1992 beating death of Malice Green by Detroit police detectives - has brought police review back into the public arena. Not since civil rights demonstrators clashed with police in the 1960s has officer accountability been so hotly debated. Perez examines fairness, objectivity, and thoroughness in review systems throughout the country and offers a model for the "ideal" police review system. Crucial to any monitoring system are guidelines, which Perez stresses must insist on rigorous investigations of alleged police abuses, outline strict limitations of police action, strive to bridge gaps between police officers and citizens, and exonerate officers who are found to have acted properly and legally. With these standards in place, the author asserts, a balance between self-sanctioning and enforced regulation can be achieved. Perez includes valuable discussions of both the causes of police attitudes and behavior and the misconceptions and expectations that can contribute to a pervasive public image of police malpractice. Perez provides helpful reflections on the role of politicians and administrators in implementing and maintaining police accountability.; 397 pages.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Este libro estudia las relaciones entre la mujer y la esclavitud, y los estadios vitales siguientes a la consecución de la libertad, en una geografía amplia como fue la de los espacios ibéricos, portugueses y españoles, entre la península Ibérica, América, África y Asia durante los siglos XVI al XIX. El libro se compone de 21 aportaciones debidas a otros tantos especialistas de universidades de Europa y América y se organiza en cuatro partes dedicadas sucesivamente a: 1. planteamientos historiográficos; 2. comparaciones y circulaciones de mujeres entre la península Ibérica y América; 3. la península Ibérica; 4. las Américas, con estudios tanto sobre el Brasil portugués como territorios de la América española como Charcas, o acerca de la influencia o relación de las experiencias ibéricas en zonas de la América inglesa, como Virginia; y 5. la India portuguesa.Las perspectivas adoptadas combinan la macro y la microhistoria, lo que permite multitud de análisis con detalle que abren la puerta a una percepción más fina y cuidadosa de las trayectorias vitales de estas mujeres, lo que contribuye a evitarplanteamientos simplistas o de trazo grueso. Una de las principales virtudes de este libro es el de la multiplicación de las fuentes históricas utilizadas, procedentes de un gran número de archivos americanos y europeos, aparte del recurso a las fuentes jurídicas.También se plantea el problema de la explotación desde una perspectiva histórica de las fuentes literarias y su relación con las fuentes documentales.Por su temática, y lo ambicioso de la propuesta acerca de la historia de las mujeres y la esclavitud, pensamos que este libro está llamado a convertirse en referente para este campo de estudios.…
