The objective of this course is to provide the student with a foundation of law enforcement, which includes the purpose, role, accountability, and answerability of police in society. Commencing with an analysis of the history of American police, the contemporary law enforcement industry will be examined as well. By acknowledging the presence and impact of political, social, cultural, and legal factors on policing, this course also addresses the effect of these aspects on morals, ethics, race, class, and gender.
