I am the author of\u00a0Badges Without Borders: How Global Counterinsurgency Transformed American Policing<\/i>(University of California Press, 2019). At Hopkins, I teach courses on police and prisons, Black social movements, and social theory. In 2023, I was awarded the Johns Hopkins Alumni Association Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching Award by the Krieger School of Arts & Sciences.<\/p>"],"ecpt_research":["
My first monograph is Badges Without Borders: How Global Counterinsurgency Transformed American Policing <\/em>(University of California Press, Fall 2019). It examines the relationship between US projections of power overseas and the rise of the carceral state at home. Badges Without Borders<\/em> shows that during the Cold War the United States used policing experts to modernize police in the developing world, for the purpose of preventing revolution. These experts, in turn, shaped the domestic response to Black insurgency during the 1960s, creating expansive new bureaucracies of criminal justice and aggressive policing techniques and technologies. This book demonstrates that overseas state-building in the domain of security has profound and negative effects on democracy at home.<\/p>\r\n Additionally, I have begun a new project on the political activities of police in the United States since the 1960s, via professional organizations and unions. I am examining how changes to everyday routines of policing and development of new managerial techniques have resulted in police cohering into a semiautonomous political force that acts in self-interested ways to make demands on elected officials, particularly in moments of racialized political crisis.<\/p>"],"ecpt_teaching":[" 362.335 Unlocking Knowledge: Theorizing Prison from the Inside<\/p>\r\n 362.314 Police and Prisons in Comparative Perspective Schrader, Stuart. 2019.
