520 8  Annotation|bExamines police violence in Guyana through 
       consideration of the social, political, and legal 
       structure of the nation. 
520 8  Annotation|bThe legacy of colonialism and its influence on
       policing and society is of crucial significance in 
       developing an explanation for police violence and police-
       caused homicide in post-colonial countries such as Guyana.
       Mars applies a contextual approach, grounded in the 
       conflict theoretical perspective, to explain and 
       understand variations in police violence over time, and 
       she extends her study to include the social, political, 
       and legal structure in which such actions are embedded. 
       Her findings support the notion that police violence is a 
       function of decades of coercive state rule under British 
       colonialism, as well as the state's legitimization of 
       violence in police work.
