Pierre Bolotte and the Colonial Origins of the Anti-Crime Brigade
When we think of the police, we usually think of a local institution. However, this talk is about the global circulation of police power, tactics, and ideology. I will focus on the life of a mostly forgotten French civil servant who spent his career abroad in the French empire before bringing his expertise back home to the suburbs of Paris.
