NOTES
Title from title frames
The shift of the role of police from a passive, outside observer to an active participant and even protagonists, came about with the emergence of the police procedural. Journeying from Maigret to Dragnet, and exploring authors such as Georges Simenon and Chester Himes, you’ll see how the police procedural started as an attempt to introduce realism and resulted in redefining the genre
