Abolishing The Police

“This is the first time we are seeing… a conversation about defunding, and some people having a conversation about abolishing the police and prison state. This must be what it felt like when people were talking about abolishing slavery.” – Patrisse Cullors, Black Lives Matter. Abolishing the Police (An Illustrated Introduction) is both a contribution to this conversation and an invitation to join it. It provides rigorous and accessible analyses of why we might want to abolish the police, what abolishing them would involve, and how it might be achieved, introducing readers to the rich existing traditions of anti-police theory and practice. Its authors draw on their diverse on-the-ground experiences of political organising, protest, and resistance to policing in the UK, France, Germany, and the United States, as well as their original research in academic fields ranging from law to security studies, political theory to sociology to public health

The monograph concerns substantiation of basic parameters and application area of thin coal seam mining with the worked-out area stowing by means of undercut rocks. As a result of the studies, regularities of changes in stress-strain state of rock mass depending upon operational parameters of mining procedures while the worked-out area stowing. The opportunity to use rocks of Western Donbas as stowing material has been substantiated. Basic design features of winning-stowing systems have been determined; operation schedules to mine thin seams with stowing for mines in Western Donbas have been developed. The monograph is meant for students, engineers and technicians, academics, scientific-research institutes, and project organizations of coal industry
