These include the improper surveillance of trade unionists and peace activists, campaigns of mis-information against elected politicians and even the elimination' of people believed to be engaged in political violence. Drawing on extensive foreign material and making use of the social science concepts of information, power and law, this book develops a framework for the comparative analysis of these agencies.Gill, Peter is the author of 'Policing Politics - Peter Gill - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780714634906 and ISBN 0714634905.
