The Danger Imperative: How the “war on cops” shapes violent police culture w/ Michael Sierra-Arévalo (G&R 288)
Manage episode 413951809 series 3240071
We talk with Prof. Michael Sierra-Arévalo (@michaelsierraa) about the "war on cops" and how it has shaped police culture and violence. We discuss the creation of this culture of police survival over public safety. Where and how it's created. How police see themselves as holding the line against agents of chaos. The institution's perception of race, politics and media. And the influence of the right wing, both politicians and media eco-systems. Bio// Michael Sierra-Arévalo (@michaelsierraa) is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin. His research employs quantitative and qualitative methods to investigate police culture, behavior, and legitimacy. His first book is "The Danger Imperative: Violence, Death, and the Soul of Policing." ---------------------------- Outro// "Green and Red Blues" by Moody
