CRJU 530 - Introduction to Police Culture: An Intensive Review(3 credits)
Prerequisite: CRJU 500, which may be taken concurrently; and CRJU 504 and CRJU 505
This course introduces students to the in-depth study of the organizational culture of law enforcement. Specifically, students will delve into a rich, diverse and burgeoning literature on police culture, as they read a number of first-person accounts and weigh relevant theoretical constructs drawn from ethnographic fieldwork. They will explore contentious issues, such as the misuse of force, official corruption and the militarization of policing in 21st century America, with an emphasis on the intensive use of scholarly research and monographs.
