{"product_id":"policing-and-crime-control-in-anne-marie-singh-9780754644576","title":"Policing and Crime Control in Post-apartheid South Africa","description":"Once a marginal political issue, crime control now occupies a central place on the social, political and economic agenda of contemporary liberal democracies. Nowhere more so than in post-apartheid South Africa, where the transition from apartheid rule to democratic rule was marked by a shift in concern from political to criminal violence. In this book Anne-Marie Singh offers a comprehensive account of policing transformations in post-apartheid South Africa. Her analysis of crime and mechanisms for its control is linked to an analysis of neo-liberal policies, providing the basis for a critique of existing analyses of liberal democratic governance. Themes addressed in the book include the exercise of coercive authority, state and non-state expertise in policing, the 'rationally-choosing' criminal, and the importance of developing an active and responsible citizenship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne-Marie Singh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 075464457X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780754644576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d","brand":"Anne-Marie Singh","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065089372415,"sku":"9780754644576","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ed47ee5-8878-48dc-9776-855b55ae0fbb.jpg?v=1768672914","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/policing-and-crime-control-in-anne-marie-singh-9780754644576","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
