Criminal Business
Who the hell gave Frankie Zanetti a bazooka? I’ve made mistakes in the past. Many of them. By far, the worst one has to be climbing into the back of a vehicle with Maine’s number one mobster. Who gets herself kidnapped twice in one evening? Either way you spin it, I’m dead. At least this way, I’ll go down, staring at the hottest Italian boss to walk the earth rather than the dirty back alley where he found me. Pelican Bay is a charming town, but I belong in Chicago. If Frankie doesn’t let me return and confess my sins, the Grandmaster will blow up the entire coast to get me home. When two mobsters go to war, everything I love may end up in a cloud of bullets and blood. Want your leading man hard on the outside, but with a heart of gold who will do anything for his girl? Grab a copy of Criminal Business and let Frankie Zanetti carry you away.

Routledge International Handbook of Police Ethnography
Ethnography has a long history in the humanities and social sciences and has provided the base line in the field of police studies for over 60 years. We have recently witnessed a resurgence in ethnographic practice among police scholars, and this Handbook is a response to that revival. Students and academics are returning to the ethnography arena and the study of police in situ to explain the evocative worlds of the police. The list of ethnographic sites is vast and all have fed the rejuvenation of ethnographic endeavour. Together they suggest innovation, theoretical depth, broad geographical boundaries, multi-site experiments, and multi-disciplinarity, all of which are central to the explor...
Rethinking Community Policing in International Police Reform
Community policing has often been promoted, particularly in liberal democratic societies, as the best approach to align police services with the principles of good security sector governance (SSG). The stated goal of the community policing approach is to reduce fear of crime within communities, and to overcome mutual distrust between the police and the communities they serve by promoting police-citizen partnerships. This SSR Paper traces the historical origins of the concept of community policing in Victorian Great Britain and analyses the processes of transfer, implementation, and adaptation of approaches to community policing in Imperialand post-war Japan, Singapore, and Timor-Leste. The study identifies the factors that were conducive or constraining to the establishment of community policing in each case. It concludes that basic elements of police professionalism and local ownership are necessary preconditions for successfully implementing community policing according to the principles of good SSG. Moreover, external initiatives for community policing must be more closely aligned to the realities of the local context.
Seeing the Past with Computers
Recent developments in computer technology are providing historians with new ways to see—and seek to hear, touch, or smell—traces of the past. Place-based augmented reality applications are an increasingly common feature at heritage sites and museums, allowing historians to create immersive, multifaceted learning experiences. Now that computer vision can be directed at the past, research involving thousands of images can recreate lost or destroyed objects or environments, and discern patterns in vast datasets that could not be perceived by the naked eye. Seeing the Past with Computers is a collection of twelve thought-pieces on the current and potential uses of augmented reality and comp...
