Critical Government Documents on Law and Order
About this book
Critical Government Documents on Law and Order reviews of many law and order issues facing us today. The book does not offer any new science nor attempt to take sides. It is, however, an attempt to gather together information from as many sources as possible so that you, the reader, don't have to. It presents arguments for and against the issues covered so that the reader can come to his or her own conclusions.
Areas covered include the threat from domestic and international terrorism and the growth of extremist militias, the increase in school place and workplace violence, relationships between police and the public, and how people can protect themselves from being victims of crime.
