Police militarism has been back at the forefront of criminal justice policy discussions in the wake of the militaristic police response to protests following a police officer's fatal shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014. This book examines the issue of militarization in a post-Ferguson environment from the perspective of those inside policing. Drawing from a variety of data-including historical analysis of newspaper articles, original data from police respondents attending the FBI's National Academy, and interviews with police chiefs and tactical officers-this work provides a nuanced look at police militarization that will inform future discussions and empirical research.
