Cara Rabe-Hemp Books

Focusing on a cross-cultural analysis, this book explores the roles of women in policing worldwide, highlighting their significant contributions to law enforcement. It delves into the common challenges these women encounter, offering insights into their experiences and the impact they have within the field. Through this comparative lens, the text sheds light on both the progress made and the obstacles that remain for female officers globally.

Though women changed their police role throughout history, sexual harassment and gender-bias is still evident in this male-dominated field. Cara Rabe-Hemp shows that despite the struggles that women face in the all-boys club of policing, not only do women survive but they thrive in this almost exclusively male occupation.
