Considering the rapidly shifting demographic trends, this book provides a conceptual framework for a deeper understanding of the needs, roles, experiences, and future prospects of Latino officers in law enforcement agencies across the nation. As in the first edition, the central goal of this new book is twofold. First, the need, role, expectations, complexities, and future of Latino officers in law enforcement are examined within a broader context: the evolution of American policing over time. Second, contributing authors seek to examine not only the historical manipulation, prejudice, discrimination, oppression, and brutality, but also the cultural, structural, financial, political, and ideological forces that have influenced and continue to perpetuate the current situation for Latinos, as police officers and community residents, in the United States. The issues highlighted, like racial/ethnic profiling, police brutality, underpolicing, and overpolicing, are delineated, supplemented with historical, social, theoretical, philosophical, and legal analysis, along with empirical studies. Lastly, addressing various essential issues in this book, contributing authors demonstrate that the lack of knowledge on Latino police and the overall American police is not inevitable, and thus the book concludes with policy and research recommendations to help bridge this long-neglected void; ultimately, the creation of a new police force for the twenty-first century. It will be of interest to law enforcement administrators, criminal justice educators, civic managers, criminologists, sociologists, and others vested in police reform.
