Building on comparative research in the U.K. and the U.S.A., this book specifically focuses on transgender experiences within policing, examining the challenges faced by the transgender community in this context. It explores perceptions of gender and non-conformity within police cultures and critiques the queer criminology movement, highlighting the significance of transgender issues in policing studies. The empirical work includes qualitative data from American officers and English and Welsh constables regarding transgender police. Key research questions address the perceptions of cisgender officers towards their transgender counterparts, the occupational experiences of transgender officers, and the administrative challenges they encounter. The author concludes by discussing the empirical, theoretical, and policy contributions of the research, offering recommendations for policy and future studies. This work makes a strong contribution to critical and queer criminology literature and is relevant to those in gender studies, sociology, public administration, management studies, and policing studies.
