商品描述
Evidence Based Policing (EBP) exerts significant influence on how actors think, act and speak about UK policing to the point that it is becoming institutionalised. Inspired by the insights of Michel Foucault into power-knowledge, governmentality and institutional reform over time, this book provides a comprehensive account of the emergence of EBP in Britain as well as original discourse analysis and analytical research into the texts produced by EBP. It presents a new history of EBP presented around EBP's story-lines, subject positions and the institutional changes it has created. This history shows EBP shares a genealogical heritage with modern discourses of managerialism and neoliberalism. EBP's roots are traced and it is re-presented as an extension of the problematic relationship in the production of criminological knowledge and the British state. This history fundamentally challenges the notion on which EBP rests: basing policing policy upon independent, robust knowledge. Instead this book argues EBP should be subject to greater illumination and challenge, suggesting EBP is a contestable device that is doing political work. It speaks to those interested in policing, critical criminology and political science.

基於證據的警務(Evidence Based Policing,EBP)對於英國警務的思考、行動和言論產生了重大影響,以至於它正在成為制度化的一部分。本書受到米歇爾·福柯對權力知識、政府性和制度改革的洞察力的啟發,提供了英國EBP的出現的全面描述,以及對EBP所產生的文本進行的原始話語分析和分析研究。本書圍繞EBP的故事線、主體位置和所創造的制度變革,呈現了EBP的新歷史。這個歷史顯示EBP與現代管理主義和新自由主義的話語有著同源的遺傳。本書追溯了EBP的根源,並將其重新呈現為犯罪學知識生產和英國國家之間問題關係的延伸。這個歷史從根本上挑戰了EBP所依賴的觀念:以獨立、堅固的知識為基礎制定警務政策。相反,本書認為EBP應該接受更多的闡明和挑戰,並提出EBP是一個有爭議的工具,正在進行政治工作。本書適合對警務、批判性犯罪學和政治科學感興趣的讀者。
