نویسنده
چکیده
This paper focuses on a Special '~.'capons and Tactics (S~TAT) police team, and on how this team creates, maintains, and modifies a repertoire of routines. Using data collected through interviews, obset·vation, and archival sources I explain the different processes used by this team to maintain a set of routines that is well-practiced but that can also be modified. The SWAT team engages in activities to develop routines held in common, activities to incorporate new knowledge into the routine repertoire, and activities to organize the repertoire in the minds of individuals. The result of these activities is a set of behavioral routines that aiel the SWAT team in the execution of its activities.
