This book illustrates the processes by which information technology and related changes in communication formats have affected the public face of policing in Canada.
Policing and Social Media: Social Control in an Era of Digital Media investigates various public aspects of the management, use, and control of social media by police agencies in Canada. This book aims to illustrate the process by which information technology—namely, social media—and related changes in communication formats have affected the public face of policing and police work. Christopher J. Schneider argues that police use of social media has altered institutional public police practices in a manner that is consistent with the logic of social media platforms: policing is changing to include new ways of conditioning the public, cultivating self-promotion, and expanding social control. Every chapter in this second edition has been updated with contemporary examples and analysis. Each case study presented here focuses on a different social media platform or format while at the same time developing suitable analytical and methodological approaches for understanding contemporary policing practices on social media sites.
