Understanding Police Intelligence Work (Key Themes In Policing)

Procedural and moral shortcomings in both child abuse cases and the long-term deployment of undercover police officers have raised questions about the effectiveness and efficacy of intelligence work, and yet intelligence work plays an ever growing role in policing. Part of a new series on evidence-based policing, this book is the first to offer a comprehensive, fully up-to-date account of how police can--and do--use intelligence, assessing the threats and opportunities presented by new digital technology, like the widespread use of social media and the emergence of "big data," and applying both a practical and an ethical lens to police intelligence activities. 9781447326403 1447326407 188 Political Science NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=1kLxCwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&edge=curl&source=gbs_api en
