As the author shows,  police ideological indoctrination is strongest in mainland China,  followed by Hong Kong, and Taiwan, where the  police is under increasing political stress, in the aftermath of rising public  protests and socio-political movements. Macao's police, on the other hand, is far  less politicized and indoctrinated than their mainland Chinese counterpart. This  book demonstrates that policing in China is a distinctive and extensive topic,  as it involves not only crime control, but also crisis management and protest  control, governance and corruption (or anti-corruption), the management of  customs and immigration, the control over legal and illegal migrants, the  transfer of criminals and extradition, and intergovernmental police  cooperation and coordination. As economic integration is increasing rapidly in  Greater China, this region's policing deserves special attention.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-11-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137390691\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-39070-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 333\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44752453664908,"sku":"9781137390691","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137390691.jpg?v=1776688913","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781137390691","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
