The Politics of Policing
Gotham's War within a War
A surprising history unfolded in New Deal– and World War II–era New York City under Mayor Fiorello La Guardia. Throughout the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, members of the NYPD had worked to enforce partisan political power rather than focus on crime. That changed when La Guardia took office in 1934 and shifted the city's priorities toward liberal reform. La Guardia's approach to low-level policing anticipated later trends in law …
Coercive patriotism
This article explores the formation and operation of an auxiliary police agency, the City Patrol Corps, created by Mayor Fiorello La Guardia in New York City during World War II.

Both of these dynamics comprised part of a …

Most of these complaints stemmed from vague references to rumors of crimes rather than actual incidents. Black journalists and members of the NAACP refuted these accusations and argued that the real issue was discrimination…

Number Narratives
Within California’s envirotechnical system, there is a normative practice of thinking water problems through “number narratives”: numerical stories about how water works in a particular place and time. These number narratives reveal moments where numbers become not only assertions of transparency, trust, or objectivity, but also literary and social technologies that simplify and make sense of relations between people, places, things, and practice…
