Table of ContentsReviews"“A remarkable historical narrative that details the racial and ethnic projects at the center of the development of the institution of modern policing.” -- Alex S. Vitale, author of * The End of Policing * “Exhaustive, meticulous, and brilliant, Police and the Empire City is an indispensable addition to our understanding of race, empire, law enforcement, and the places where these elements intersect. Matthew Guariglia’s work has provided us a genealogy of the problems that continue to beset modern policing and the thinking that produced them in the first place. A striking scholarly achievement.” -- Jelani Cobb, Dean and Henry R. Luce Professor of Journalism, Columbia University ""Guariglia excels at teasing out the numerous ways the NYPD helped enforce racial boundaries, including by shutting down interracial 'Black-and-Tan' nightclubs (which served Black and white patrons) and offering Irish and Italian officers opportunities to 'consolidate their ""whiteness""' by meting out violence against Black New Yorkers. He also draws parallels with more recent eras of NYC policing. . . . The result is a damning investigation of the NYPD’s past."" * Publishers Weekly *" “A remarkable historical narrative that details the racial and ethnic projects at the center of the development of the institution of modern policing.” -- Alex S.
