Planned hooligan fights
Several European countries have recently been confronted with mutually arranged confrontations between hooligan groups in a predesignated setting. This article explores the significance of this form of collective violence for those involved and how this relates to existing collective violence theory. In addition to international and national questionnaires and subsequent in-depth interviews with police officials, two case studies were conducted a…
A Method for Direct Systematic Observation of Collective Violence and Public Order Policing
The article outlines a methodology for systematically observing collective violence (and public order policing in relation to it). Specific attention is given to matters of sampling and measurement and to the way in which observational challenges have been met in comparison with participant observational studies of demonstrations and football matches. The article shows that it is possible to conduct meaningful systematic observations of episodes …
Contextual and Individual Factors Determining Escalation of Collective Violence
Two dominant perspectives explaining collective violence differ in the extent to which they ascribe influence to individual and contextual factors. Our analysis of a project X disorder in the Netherlands shows organized groups were not involved. Instead spontaneous group formation and identification were observed, confirming socio-contextual theory. Arrested suspects, however, were no cross section of youths, with a minority mirroring the persona…

This paper introduces a relational perspective to the analysis of the interaction process from confrontation to cooperation between police and civilians.

By means of a comparison of t…

Preventing Crowd Violence offers a lucid examination of crowd behavior and of law enforcement tactics designed to deescalate tensions and promote cooperative interactions
Mantenimiento Del Orden Público
As forças policiais diferenciam-se nos métodos de intervenção que utilizam para manter a lei e a ordem em grandes eventos que põem em perigo a ordem pública, a exemplo das partidas de futebol de alto risco e de certas manifestações públicas. Tradicionalmente, a ênfase no treinamento e desempenho policiais se coloca nas táticas de controle antidistúrbios e no uso de armas não letais, incluindo desde o cassetete e os produtos químicos até os canhõe…
