Renowned criminologist Mike Hough delves into the principles and practices of effective policing in this comprehensive examination of the legitimacy of the police services and the factors that underpin public trust. In the face of growing concerns about the rise in crimes of severe violence, he challenges conventional political and public perceptions on crime and critically examines strategies and tactics such as deterrence and stop-and-search. Hough explores the contrasting 'hard' and 'soft' approaches to policing and punishment, offering a fresh perspective that emphasizes the significance of achieving normative compliance. This invaluable guide is a must-read for officers, students, policy makers, and anyone with an interest in the police force, as it provides a roadmap for ethical and responsible policing practices.
