The Training of Uniformed Police Volunteers to Utilize Evidence-Based Policing: An Insight From Volunteer Special Constables in England and Wales
This research examines if uniformed police volunteers, called ‘special constables’ across England and Wales, are trained to understand and utilize evidence-based policing (EBP) in their volunteering. As the government across the United Kingdom focuses on neighbourhood policing, the special constabulary is key in enacting such activities within communities. The research used an anonymous online questionnaire, collecting data from 129 volunteer spe…
The development of police first-line leaders: An international comparison between Australia, England and Wales
Police first-line leaders (sergeants/team leaders/supervisors) have significant impact on the workforce, as such there is the need for leaders to be effectively developed for their role and engage in ongoing learning. This paper focuses on the professional development of police first-line leaders. Comparing and contrasting approaches to knowledge, understanding and skills development within both the classrooms and workplaces across the policing j…
Incorporating Higher Education into Initial Police Training: An International Comparison of Practices and Challenges
The need for well-trained and educated police officers is key to the delivery of effective and professional policing services. How “well trained and educated” is defined and accomplished is regularly debated and varies. There are long standing visions of effectively linking training and education for police recruits, but these have yet to be completely achieved. This paper describes the training and education of police recruits in four locations …
Supporting Military Veterans: Insights from volunteers in North East England

Evidence-based policing for crime prevention in England and Wales: Perception and use by new police recruits
Recruiting police support volunteers for their professional knowledge and skills: A pilot study
Against a backdrop of austerity, the national ‘Citizens in Policing’ programme aims to engage the wider community and support the police service. Research conducted across a single force area identified the level of motivation and barriers to recruiting those with professional knowledge and skills as police support volunteers. This research study identified that there is a significant appetite to volunteer as a specialist utilising professional k…
From the "Aesthetics of Indifference" to "Negative Aesthetics: John Cage and Germany 1958-1972
A selection from the correspondence between Pierre Boulez and John Cage appeared in October 65 (Summer 1993) to mark the publication of the complete letters in a bilingual edition that had begun to fill a lacuna in the Cage literature by partially documenting the period leading up to Cage's breakthrough to chance principles of composition in 1949-50.1 Cage's transition from the composer of works such as the Sonatas and Interludes of 1947-48-which…
Chance as Ideology
When the American composer John Cage took the podium at the Darmstadt Summer Program for New Music in 1958 to lecture on and demonstrate the principle of indeterminacy, the absolute primacy of serial organization over musical form in Europe had already been broken. The link between serialism and indeterminacy, which had already been critically elucidated without Cage's contribution, had produced works such as Boulez's Third Sonata [for piano; 195…
John Cage, or Liberated Music
Both before and after World War I, reproaches against the first radical works of the New Music were occasionally formulated out of ignorance, reproaches that came down to saying that in such music the tones are combined arbitrarily, simply according to chance. Within this cacophony, for instance, it becomes impossible to distinguish what is correct from what is wrong and even whether the musicians of the ensemble play together according to a larg…
