From their direct observations comes a wealth of information, quantitatively assembled and qualitatively discussed, with insights into the nature of policing.This book reveals that the police are not mere 'referees' of our legal lives, blowing the whistle on our infractions. They are censors of certain types of possibly wrong actions. They are selective in their invocation of criminal law and use the law artfully to restore settings to orderliness. Ericson emphasizes the routine manner in which the patrol officer intervenes and gains compliance from the citizenry. He demonstrates that when the criminal process is invoked, the police maintain fundamental control over the court outcome.Using these findings, he addresses basic questions about the role of police in relation to crime and how it is produced, literally, by the patrol officer. Crime is also seen as the primary basis of police legitimacy, which in turn enables the police to engage in broad surveillance and information-gathering.The author's conclusions about the nature of policing and his discussion of the implications of proposals for reform of police, will generate better-informed deliberation in political and public decision-making and in the general study of sociological theory. 410 0$aCanadian studies in criminology ;$v5. 606 $aPolice patrol$zCanada 606 $aPolice patrol$zCanada$vCase studies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolice patrol 615 0$aPolice patrol 676 $a363.2/32/0971 700 $aEricson$b Richard Victor$01033952 712 02$aUniversity of Toronto.$bCentre of Criminology. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455865203321 996 $aReproducing order$92453353 997 $aUNINA
