Permission to Shoot?: Police Use of Deadly Force in Democracies brings a new dimension to the problem of police abuse of deadly force by concentrating on India and the United States, both large democracies and vibrant superpowers...In the book, the research is based on primary sources—interviews with police officers of varying ranks: those who are involved in the killings; those who facilitate such operations; and those who are mute spectators. The book deals with universal, fundamental themes such as: what makes ordinary, decent human beings do horrible things? What motivational techniques and justifications are used to override social norms governing moral conduct, centring on the sector of society mandated to use deadly force against civilians? Why in a democratic country the abuse of police powers appears to be overtly and tacitly encouraged | | 出版日期 | Book 2010 | | 关键词 | Policy; Sean Bell; human rights; morality; police India; police force; police science; police shootings; pol | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4419-0975-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-0234-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4419-0975-6 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010 |
