TO THE INSTRUCTOR
Law Enforcement in the 21st Century has as its central theme the linkages across law
enforcement jurisdictions and the struggle to develop a coordinated approach to information
sharing and strategy development in the face of any crime, including terrorism. Additionally,
the text explains the connections between law enforcement and the rest of the criminal justice
system. Moreover, the importance of information sharing and collaboration across the
criminal justice system agencies (and thus the relevance of linkage blindness in this context as
well) are also woven throughout relevant chapters of the book. New technologies to combat
linkage blindness are highlighted in one chapter of the text as well.

Another theme of this textbook is the changing paradigm of policing throughout its history,
highlighting the movement from reactive to proactive management models. A major
philosophical and practical shift in the field of law enforcement came when Herman Goldstein
pioneered the principals of problem-oriented policing. Law enforcement agencies continue to
utilize the principle of problem solving today in a community oriented policing approach to
XE
address quality of life concerns. This central element of problem solving and proactive
policing is relating underlying causes to strategy, which is yet another theme revisited
throughout the text.
This book is divided into three sections with the aforementioned themes woven throughout
the entire text. The first section of the book lays the framework of the law enforcement field
LI
for the reader, establishing common definitions, and tracing the origins and developments of
the field to the end of the professionalization movement. It includes an OVERVIEW of the
legal underpinnings of police work, paying particular attention to the challenges to precedents
evident in the new threat of terrorism and related legislation such as the United States Patriot
BR
Act of 2001. The second section of the book presents the more traditional functions and
operations of law enforcement (i.e., structure and operations) in a way that prepares the reader
for changing dynamics to encompass evolving policing models and demands. The section also
examines challenging issues in policing, such as the important role of discretion. The final
section of the book challenges readers to analyze the future directions and trends in law
enforcement. Special attention is paid here to the changing demographics of the country, as
well as the impact of a post-September 11 world. Through the development of these sections,
AR
the reader is exposed to the major issues, challenges, and functions of policing in a
developmental manner.
The text interactive boxes, “Linkages and Law Enforcement,” will challenge readers to relate
concepts and issues being learned in a current chapter to earlier material or current events,
thereby encouraging the developmental learning approach of the book. A major theme visited
across chapters is the challenge of balancing concerns of public safety with individual
Y
freedoms or due process.
LIST OF CHANGES/TRANSITION GUIDE
The Fourth Edition of Law Enforcement in the 21st Century builds upon the developmental
framework of the first three editions, though material is updated and streamlined. The authors
included only the material that is essential to learning about the development of law
enforcement and its functions and challenges. Additional Linkages in Law Enforcement text
