Studying policing comparatively is also a way to develop more sophisticated theories on the relations between police, state, and society aiming at higher degree of generalization. In particular, broadening the empirical basis, often limited to Western countries, favours the formulation of more encompassing theories. The comparative analysis, then, is used to refine meso or macro theories on various aspects of policing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book covers the challenges of comparative research in diverse areas of policing studies with innovative tools and approaches to allow for the development of that subfield of policing. It is a significant new contribution to policing studies, and will be a great resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Public Policy, Sociology,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChallenges and promises of comparative policing research\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJacques de Maillard and Sebastian Roché\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolicing and the state: national paradigms, private security and citizens’ role \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
