Political culture and structures of social control: Police‐related scandal in the low countries in comparative perspective
Comparative studies of police have been a staple of the criminological tradition in Britain at least since Michael Banton's pioneering work on the sociology of the police organisation in the early 1960s. This paper focuses on cases of police‐related scandal in the Low Countries as a way of illustrating the importance of the political‐cultural component in comparative policing. It begins with an historical overview of the polities of the Netherlan…
Policing, Postmodernism and Transnationalization
The paper defines the notion of the postmodern by reference to notions of deep historical fissure, as found in the work of Arnold Toynbee and C. Wright Mills. It develops this notion by reference to current and ongoing processes of transnationalization, with specific reference to police organization. Four postul ates of poshnodern police are identified and described in detail. These are the marketization of insecurity and social control and the t…
The Global Cops Cometh: Reflections on Transnationalization, Knowledge Work and Policing Subculture
This paper employs notions about the occupational subculture of policing and policing as 'knowledge work' in order to discuss transnational trends in policing. The complex unity between the transnational subculture of policing, which is sustained through knowledge exchange, and the subculture of transnational policing, which is precariously negotiated through practical arrangements for cross-border policing, is viewed as an achievement of the kno…
Undercover: Police Surveillance in Comparative Perspective
The United States and Europe have recently experienced a significant expansion in the use of undercover police tactics and technological means of surveillance. In a democratic society, such tactics raise significant questions for public policy and social research. New and sophisticated forms of crime and social control (and their internationalization) represent an important and neglected topic. Realizing this, the leading scholars in this field c…
An Evaluation of the Craigmillar Youth Challenge
This paper offers an evaluation of a youth diversion project which ran during the 1994 Easter vacation for young people on one of Edinburgh's partly run‐down model housing estates. Through reference to detailed field observation, it offers an overview of the process of multi‐agency co‐ordination. The evaluation is made by reference to competing professional discourses employed by the representatives of the various involved agencies. The emergence…
