The ubiquitous nature and political attraction of the concept of order has to be understood in conjunction with the idea of police. Since its first publication, this book has been one of the most powerful and wide-ranging critiques of the police power. Neocleous argues for an expanded concept of police, able to account for the range of institutions through which policing takes place. These institutions are concerned not just with the maintenance and reproduction of order, but with its very fabrication, especially the fabrication of a social order founded on wage labour. By situating the police power in relation to both capital and the state and at the heart of the politics of security, the book opens up into an understanding of the ways in which the state administers civil society and fabricates order through law and the ideology of crime. The discretionary violence of the police on the street is thereby connected to the wider administrative powers of the state, and the thud of the truncheon to the dull compulsion of economic relations. 650 0 $a Communist state. 650 0 $a State, The. 650 0 $a Police power. 650 0 $a Police. 650 0 $a Power (Social sciences) 650 0 $a Civil society. 650 0 $a Social control. 650 7 $a Civil society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862876 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 650 7 $a Police power. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068645 650 7 $a Power (Social sciences) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01074219 650 7 $a Social control. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122415 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781788735216 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526020448.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=60356F8AE9E911EBBBC9467A3DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
