SELF-SELECTION POLICING Theory, Research and Practice
JASON ROACH AND KEN PEASE
Crime Prevention and Security Management
Series Editor Martin Gill Perpetuity Research Tunbridge Wells, Kent, United Kingdom
Aim of the series It is widely recognized that we live in an increasingly unsafe society, but the study of security and crime prevention has lagged behind in its importance on the political agenda and has not matched the level of public concern. This exciting new series aims to address these issues looking at topics such as crime control, policing, security, theft, workplace violence and crime, fear of crime, civil disorder, white collar crime and anti-social behaviour. International in perspective, providing critically and theoretically-informed work, and edited by a leading scholar in the field, this series will advance new understandings of crime prevention and security management.
