Course Description

Policing crime and public order has been a polarizing and politicized endeavor from the the first days that uniformed police took to Manhattan's streets in the 1840s. Since then our notions of the role of police, what needs to be policed, and by whom, have continued to be the subject of heated debate and contests over political power. This class will examine the history of the police as an institution and the politics of law and order, in order to understand how activism might contribute to how the police and policing might be shaped in the future.
