Police, State, and Society in Chile (from the 19th Century to 1927)
$22.000
This book traces the history of police forces in Chile. It presents the trajectory of the different bodies that performed police functions from the origins of the Republic until 1927, when the current Chilean Carabineros police force was created. Within its pages, you will find serene officers and watchmen, gendarmes, detectives, and guardians, interacting in the streets with neighbors, criminals, or demonstrators; also with prefects, commissioners, and police officers with a literary bent who put their experiences, aspirations, and frustrations inherent to police work into writing; and with intendants, politicians, and journalists who dealt with and debated police matters.
