A Conceptual Framework for Child Well-Being in the Context of Maternal Incarceration
No single conceptual framework currently captures the overall well-being of children experiencing maternal incarceration. To address this gap, we examined whether an existing, population-based child well-being framework, developed by the Australian Research Alliance for Children and Youth’s (ARACY), is able to account for factors known to influence the well-being of children in the context of maternal incarceration. Using a meta-narrative method,…
Making manifestos for urban history
This survey reflects on a creative workshop which the authors ran for the ‘The State of Urban History: Past, Present, Future’ conference (July 2023). ‘Making manifestos for urban history’ was an experiment to encourage small group work and co-operative outputs in a conference setting, allowing for an atypical ‘many-to-many’ model of participation. During the session, five groups each produced a manifesto poster addressing issues that they thought…
Police filming English streets in 1935
This article considers and early example of technologically-mediated visual surveillance: the use of cine cameras by the British police in 1935 in the English town of Chesterfield in an operation to crack down on illegal street betting. The paper argues that the operation and its consequences in the judicial system illustrate a number of issues: unreliable policing on the ground; the enthusiasm for technological approaches to crime; and the limit…
Constables for hire
Most currently accepted theoretical generalisations on the state of British policing conclude that there is an innovative and ongoing blurring of the boundaries between the public and the private sectors. Many make reference to the practice of the private purchase of police services from public police forces, and some explicitly claim that this is a relatively recent innovation, growing in frequency. Yet this practice is not new; it has been a fe…
Women Police
Louise Jackson has done more than provide the first comprehensive academic history of the experience of women police in Britain: she has successfully located this story in a number of relevant theoretical contexts, and produced a monograph with relevance to the histories of crime, gender and government as well as merely policing. The methodology used here to good effect is a combination of exhaustive archival research, a series of oral history in…
Home and Away’
Considering the material links between empire and metropole, we examine the way that the movement of police officers interacted with developing police ethos, culture and expertise. Although British policing was represented as consensual and Imperial policing, following the Irish pattern, as punitive, in the inter-war period British chief constables were recruited in significant numbers from Ireland. Barriers to the large-scale repatriation of col…

Police Surveillance and the Emergence of CCTV in the 1960s
Catégorisation et stigmatisation policières à Sheffield au milieu du XIXe siècle
La ville du XIXe siècle était souvent présentée comme le terrain privilégié de la criminalité, alors que les autorités urbaines tentaient de montrer, au contraire, que le crime provenait toujours de l'extérieur de la cité. Cet article prouve que la présentation des statistiques criminelles de la ville anglaise de Sheffield était manipulée de diverses manières, dont le but était toujours de montrer le criminel comme un «autre». Les rapports des vi…
