Synopsis
Juxtaposes personal views rather than representing the arguments of the two sides of the debate generally. Manning is suspicious and hostile towards economic theory and managerial practices. He argues that the whole free market paradigm is inconsistent and harmful to the traditional police mandate. Forst contends that neither private nor public policing should have, or is likely to have, the playground to themselves for long. He thinks the need for security will rapidly outgrow the public will to provide it. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
