RT Book T1 Policing women: histories in the western world, 1800 to 1950 T2 Routledge SOLON explorations in crime and criminal justice histories A2 Johnston, Helen 1975- A2 Pluskota, Marion A2 Turner, Jo LA English PP London New York PB Routledge YR 2024 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1870697200 AB "Policing Women examines for the first time the changing historical landscape of women's experiences of their contact with the official state police between 1800 to 1950, in the Western world. Drawing on and going beyond existing knowledge about policing practices, the volume discusses how women encountered the official police, how they experienced that contact, and the outcomes of that contact in the modern Western world. In so doing, it is an original and much needed addition to the literature around changes in policing, women's experiences of the criminal justice system, and women's experiences of control and regulation. The chapters uncover such experiences in a geographically spread range of countries across Europe, US, Canada and Australia. Importantly the collection focuses upon a crucial epoch in the history of policing, a 150-year period when policing was rapidly changing and being increasingly placed on a formal level. Bringing together scholarly work from expert contributors, this unique volume draws to the fore women's experiences of policing. It will be of great use to students on undergraduate and postgraduate criminology and history courses, working on the history of crime, historical criminology, the history of criminal justice, and women's history"-- CN HV6046 SN 9780367558178 SN 9780367558192 K1 19.
