«Policing unrest has become a key problem for American policing over the last decade, and one that has raised questions about the role of police in American society. This book is an essential read for anyone who wants to depart from the rhetoric and understand the problem from the perspectives of police and the community.»
David Weisburd, co-editor of <i>Police Innovation: Contrasting Perspectives</i>
«Kochel affords readers a vantage point on protests that they will not find in journalism or social media: that of officers who policed – and were the objects of – protests in Ferguson, Missouri. She adroitly weaves extant theory through new empirical evidence not only to tell the story of protest policing and its aftermath, but also to shine new light on core issues of policing through the prism of the protests and the larger crisis of police legitimacy.»
