| dc.description.abstract | In 2014, as protests against police brutality spread throughout the United States, a new policy began to emerge that sought to address the public’s declining trust in law enforcement through the release of previously withheld information on daily interactions between police and citizens. As part of a larger movement promoting government transparency, often called open data, this novel application of open data to policing was a dramatic change compared to the status quo concerning police data on these interactions in the United States. This dissertation examines the genesis, development, and spread of this policy, referred to as police-citizen interactions open data (PCI open data), focusing on the role played by the White House-led Police Data Initiative (PDI). This is achieved through developing an integrated analytical framework that combines insights from the assemblage/mobility approach with institutional perspectives on police agencies, which is then applied on original qualitative and quantitative data. This dissertation emphasizes the importance of informational infrastructure assemblages, such as the PDI, in facilitating policy mobility, and presents evidence of PCI open data adoption and mutation among data transparency policies utilized by American police. | |
