{"product_id":"defund-the-police-chris-cunneen-9781447361664","title":"Defund the Police: An International Insurrection","description":"The police are viewed as guardians of public safety and enforcers of the law. How accurate is this? Given endemic police violence which is often aimed at racialised and minoritised groups and the failure of many attempts at reform, attention has turned to community-generated models of support. These include defunding the police and instead funding alternatives to criminalisation and incarceration. This book is the first comprehensive overview of police divestment, using international examples and case studies to reimagine community safety beyond policing and imprisonment. Showcasing a range of practical examples, this topical book will be relevant for academics, policy makers, activists and all those interested in the Black Lives Matter movement, protest movements and the renewed interest in policing and abolitionism more generally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Cunneen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447361660\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447361664\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.69d","brand":"Chris Cunneen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075692392703,"sku":"9781447361664","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1c90afb5-3e02-4d72-b1c1-087ef66827de.jpg?v=1685460876","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/defund-the-police-chris-cunneen-9781447361664","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
