Goodman (English, Florida State U.) offers an exploration of how the literature of domestic policing influences international politics with a particular focus on the connection established by the police between the state, capital, and legitimate violence and between the police and racial inequalities. To illustrate the book's context, the author notes that since the terror attacks of 9/11, "...world politics increasingly takes the form of a detective novel." It is a wide-ranging examination, taking on U.S. military and contractor conduct in the Iraq War, feminism, a general loss of confidence in police agencies, and a variety of philosophical explorations of related issues.
