The Warehouse
In a post-COVID world a hundred years in the future, wars and drought have created food scarcity, and a tyrannical world government has taken over. Teenager Kim has been imprisoned with her family in a labour camp for ten years, but she manages to escape to a safehouse on the outskirts of the city. There, an elderly woman introduces her to a community of dissidents who have become self-sufficient while hiding in the mountains. Kim becomes active in the resistance, learning to fight the dangerous government-created humanoid robots used to control the citizens. When she learns that her sister Christina has been forced into a detention centre where people are brainwashed, she must hatch a daring plan to break in and save her before it’s too late.

Fair Cop
Police forces everywhere have been undergoing major social and organizational changes. In this, one of the few longitudinal studies of police socialization, Janet Chan, Christopher Devery, and Sally Doran present the complexity of police socialization under these changing conditions. Following 150 new police recruits through two years of training and apprenticeship, the authors question the traditional model of socialization that assumes a degree of stability and homogeneity in the organizational culture. They suggest that recruits' developmental paths can be much more varied and police culture is increasingly vulnerable to change. Drawing on interviews, observations, and questionnaires, the authors depict the complex processes by which recruits adapt, redefine, cope with, and make sense of the positive and negative aspects of their training and apprenticeship. Bringing together rigorous quantitative analyses with rich ethnographic description, Fair Cop provides new empirical data and theoretical understanding about the reproduction and change of police culture.
