Professor of Sociology and Political
Economy,
and Executive Director of Strategic Planning and Analysis.
Ph.D. (Sociology) Northwestern University, 1969.
Lawrence Redlinger's interests are in the
areas of higher education research and policy, strategic
analysis and management, structure and change and intelligence
and counter-intelligence. He directed the three year
study of demographic and economic change in Dallas, The
State of the Community: Implications for Intergroup Relations
and continues to analyze the implications of demographic
and economic change in the greater Dallas area.
He has published monographs, numerous
articles and chapters on policing including "Police
Narcotics Control: Patterns and Strategies" (with
Jay Williams and Peter Manning), "Invitational
Edges of Corruption" (with
Peter Manning), and " Community
Policing and Changes in Organizational Structure." He
has written on schooling, latchkey children, elementary
school organization, and higher education administration,
politics and organization. With H. H. A. Cooper, he
published Making Spies:
A Talent Spotting and Asset Management Handbook, and Catching
Spies: Principles and Practices of Counter-Espionage. His
current research focuses on the use of strategic analysis
in higher education and the conflicts that result from
the layering of organizational rules as new paradigms
supplant but do not eradicate older systems. He is
also involved in research which examines the complex
and counter-intuitive relationships between nation
states, intelligence communities, espionage, and terrorists. |
