air Power as Police Power
Environment and Planning D-society & Space, 2013Co-Authors: Mark NeocleousAbstract:This paper makes a case for understanding air Power through the lens of Police. After first rethinking a key period in the history of air Power (colonial bombing campaigns) as a Police mechanism, the paper then moves to consider the impoverished conception of war and Police in contemporary critical theory. The final section turns to perhaps the most pressing issue in current air Power debates, namely drones, and suggests that a consideration of air Power as Police Power helps us read drones as a continuation of the Police logic inherent in air Power since its inception.

the role of the Police Power in 21st century public health
Sexually Transmitted Diseases, 1999Co-Authors: Edward P Richards, Katharine C RathbunAbstract:The Police Power is the right of the state to take coercive action against individuals for the benefit of society. The com panion article by Potterat et aJ., "Invoking, monitoring, and relinquishing a public health Power: the health hold order," is a classic use of the Police Power in the control of a communi cable disease, yet one that is increasingly controversial. Reach ing an acceptable balance between the rights of society and tho e of individuals is the central issue facing public health in the next millennium, and the Police Power is at the center of this balance. This article reviews the constitutional basis of the Police Power, its historical use in public health, and the struc tural reasons why health departments preoccupied with per sonal health care cannot effectively use the Police Power to carry out public health enforcement. THE CENTRAL Dll..EMMA in public health is balancing the rights of the individual against those of the society. From the colonial period on, the tension between our inherent distrust of government and our concern with the collective welfare has made finding thi balance a particularly difficult task in the United State . Whether the issue is quarantining persons with infectious tuberculosi , contact tracing for mv, or limiting the rights of smokers in public places, public health practice must coexist with political considerations, and the Power of interest group often outweigh cientific deci ion making. Ironically, the uccess of public health has undermined the ocietal con sen u neces ary for that success. As we enter the next century, we confront the reemergence of traditional foes, such as tuber culo i , and the emergence of new agents uch as mv and Ebola eeking their niche in the human ecological y tern. Increasing population den ity, combined with ever greater dependence on common path sources for food and water and the wide u e of rapid international tran portation, create un precedented opportunities for the global pread of disease.

Beyond the Ghetto: Police Power, Methamphetamine and the Rural War on Drugs
Critical Criminology, 2014Co-Authors: Travis Linnemann, Don L. KurtzAbstract:Viewing Police as important cultural producers, we ask how Police Power fashions structures of feeling and social imaginaries of the “war on drugs” in small towns of the rural Midwest. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and a collection of interviews focusing on Police officers’ beliefs about the causes of crime and drug use, we locate a narrative of rural decline attributed to the producers and users of methamphetamine. We argue this narrative supports punitive and authoritarian sensibilities and broader narcopolitical projects more generally and ignores long-standing social inequalities observed in rural communities. As such, the cultural work of rural Police provides important insight to the shape and direction of late-modern crime control beyond the familiar terrains of the city and its “ghetto.”

staring down the state Police Power visual economies and the war on cameras
Crime Media Culture, 2014Co-Authors: Tyler Wall, Travis LinnemannAbstract:This paper considers how the politics of security and order are also a politics of aesthetics encompassing practical struggles over the authority and regulation of ways of looking and knowing. To do this, the paper considers the visual economies of Police Power in the United States by engaging what has been called the “war on cameras”, or the Police crackdown on citizen photographers who “shoot back” or “stare down” Police. Despite US law generally endorsing the right for citizens to film or photograph on-duty public Police officers, in recent years hundreds of cases have been documented where Police have confiscated or smashed cameras, deleted film, or intimidated and threatened those wielding an unauthorized camera. For us, this crackdown on the unauthorized stare is a theoretically and politically insightful case study—a diagnostic moment—for engaging more openly and starkly the assumptions underpinning Police Power more generally, particularly the ways Police Power aims to actively fabricate social or...

commentary a legal perspective on diabetes surveillance privacy and the Police Power
Milbank Quarterly, 2009Co-Authors: Michelle M Mello, Lawrence O GostinAbstract:The New York City A1C Registry (NYCAR) program is an unusual and groundbreaking extension of the reach of public health law. It marks the first time that the government has mandated name-based reporting of a chronic, noninfectious disease not caused by an environmental toxin and where the data are given to patients and physicians. Although the program has generated deep social controversy, remarkably it has not been challenged in court. Nonetheless, the law offers a useful lens through which to consider the program's justification and legitimacy. In this commentary to the article in this issue by Chamany and colleagues (2009), we examine the state's Powers and responsibilities; patients’ rights to privacy and security of personal data; and physicians’ “privacy” rights.

jacobson v massachusetts at 100 years Police Power and civil liberties in tension
American Journal of Public Health, 2005Co-Authors: Lawrence O GostinAbstract:A century ago, the US Supreme Court in Jacobson v Massachusetts upheld the exercise of the Police Power to protect the public’s health. Despite intervening scientific and legal advances, public health practitioners still struggle with Jacobson’s basic tension between individual liberty and the common good.In affirming Massachusetts’ compulsory vaccination law, the Court established a floor of constitutional protections that consists of 4 standards: necessity, reasonable means, proportionality, and harm avoidance. Under Jacobson, the courts are to support public health matters insofar as these standards are respected.If the Court today were to decide Jacobson once again, the analysis would likely differ—to account for developments in constitutional law—but the outcome would certainly reaffirm the basic Power of government to safeguard the public’s health.
