Collective Violence, Democracy and Protest Policing - Mansley, David (Lancaster University, United Kingdom)

In this book David Mansley argues that the frequency with which violence intrudes on to the streets is related to both how society is governed and how it is policed. With the help of an innovative methodology, he quantifies and tests three variables - collective violence, democracy and protest policing using protests in Great Britain in 1999-2011, for his sampling frame.
