CJA 3230-Police Organization and Administration
“We are born in organizations, educated by organizations, and spend most of our lives working for organizations. We spend much of our time…playing and praying in organizations. Most of us will die in an organization and when the time comes for burial, the largest organization of all—the state—must grant official permission” – Amitai Etzioni, Modern Organizations.
