Synopsis

This book examines the developments in urban policing from the 1840s through the Civil War, analyzing the interplay between law enforcement and social control in the cities of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia. Focusing on the forces that shaped policing techniques and philosophies, the author shows how urban policing evolved into a centralized, professionalized force, and how this development reflected the growing power of the state and the increasing social and economic stratification of American society. The book illuminates the often-overlooked role of policing in the development of American cities, and its insights are essential for understanding the history of urban America.
