This book analyses how it is being responded to by the police in affected provincial areas. Drawing on unique ethnographic fieldwork, it takes readers into police stations and out onto the streets with officers, providing timely insight into the policing of this high profile and challenging drug market context. The book considers the use of new police tactics that have been proposed and familiar methods that officers regularly embarked on. Through a sophisticated theoretical framework it argues that the policing of County Lines can often be considered symbolic with concerns regularly placed on sending out strong messages that appear superficial when closely examined. Alongside this, however, there appears to be a progressive shift towards a more pragmatic drugs policing approach that embraces harm reduction principles.This cutting-edge research speaks to academics in Criminology and Policing, and to practitioners and policy makers. 001432526 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 27, 2021). 001432526 650_0 $$aDrug control$$zGreat Britain. 001432526 650_0 $$aPolice$$zGreat Britain. 001432526 650_6 $$aLutte antidrogue$$zGrande-Bretagne. 001432526 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001432526 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030541927 001432526 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in risk, crime and society. 001432526 852__ $$bebk 001432526 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-54193-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001432526 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1432526$$pGLOBAL_SET 001432526 980__ $$aBIB 001432526 980__ $$aEBOOK 001432526 982__ $$aEbook 001432526 983__ $$aOnline 001432526 994__ $$a92$$bISE
