Policing the Crowd

By Clifford Stott and Edward R. Maguire

This is the first comprehensive account of how crowd psychology has transformed policing. Drawing on dramatic case studies from Britain, Europe, and the United States, it reveals how crowd psychology and policing intersect, why disorder spreads, and how legitimacy can be won or lost in the space of a single decision.
