''By bringing the frontier into the foreground, Lippert and Walby
challenge us to question established theories and empirical
research into both the historical and contemporary roles and
objectives of modern policing.'' Ian Warren, Deakin University
''Lippert and Walby have been instrumental in pushing forward the
study of plural policing into new and uncharted territory. This
thought-provoking and imaginative book continues the journey.''
Adam White, University of Sheffield
''This fascinating book breaks down both national and academic
borders in order to present a much richer understanding of the
increasing coalescence of policing and security provision at the
vital but under-researched frontiers of service delivery.'' Sarah
Charman, University of Portsmouth
"This excellent book adds significantly to the rich body of
international scholarship exploring diverse and novel policing and
security developments. Utilising innovative methodological
approaches, it develops new empirical and conceptual insights into
the contemporary nature, logics, practices and working relations of
public and private forms of policing.'' Stuart Lister, University
of Leeds
''Lippert and Walby forcefully show how studying policing and
security frontiers is essential to understanding how a number of
diverse institutions, actors, logics and strategies are
transforming policing today." David Moffette, University of
Ottawa
''This book is an essential source of information for both scholars
and practitioners interested in policing beyond the police:
corporate security guards, community safety officers, ambassador
patrols and others working on the frontiers of security.'' Ronald
van Steden, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
