Dogged and Destructive: Essays on the Winnipeg Police
Published on the centennial of the city and its police force, Dogged and Destructive: Essays on the Winnipeg Police is a short collection of critical and deeply researched essays about the history, violence, and costs of the Winnipeg Police Service (WPS). It argues that policing in Winnipeg should be studied and understood regardless of where one lives due to the city’s particular dynamics of settler-colonialism, enormous police budgets, and concerns about violence. The book provides a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the WPS and advocates for the imagining and pushing for alternatives to police power in Winnipeg and Canada. Part of ARP Books’ Semaphore Series of short polemics on contemporary issues.
