Situational crime prevention against cyberfraud
Cyberfraud is turning into a transnational organised cybercrime, which creates tremendous conundrums for criminal justice systems in the global context. The current study examines the utility of the situational crime prevention (SCP) framework in combating this ‘wicked problem’, which has been advocated for years but remains empirically underdeveloped. Using China's anti-fraud centres (AFCs) as a case study, this research provides the Global Sout…
Deaths during police apprehension and in police custodial detention
Australian deaths in custody are reported by the Australian Institute of Criminology's National Deaths in Custody Program (NDICP). This metric includes deaths occurring in prison, police custody and youth detention. It also includes deaths during police apprehensions where a person is being taken into custody, police officer-involved shootings, and other specific police operations. This paper considers the merit of such an approach and calls for …
Police sergeants and disaster management during Australia’s Black Summer bushfire crisis
The police sergeant, or equivalent supervisor, is the glue that binds police units together, assigns workloads, and distributes organisational power from ‘above’ to ensure that those in the field play fairly and by the rules. Yet very little empirical research has been undertaken to examine the work of sergeants or consider how these roles impact the ability of police and their partners to manage critical incidents, including complex disasters. D…
Resilience policing and disaster management during Australia's Black Summer bushfire crisis
Policing landscapes are being transformed by disaster risks associated with climate change. ‘Resilience policing’ is described as an emergent model of security governance that builds upon established state-based community policing traditions to support the management of these complex risks and hazards. The assumption is that established policing capabilities might be harnessed to enhance disaster resilience. Empirical research on resilience polic…
Suspicious minds and suspicioning
Purpose This article explores officer use of suspicion before informal police-citizen encounters as a method to further understand police officer decision-making. There is a body of research focused on officer decision-making before formal “stop and search” encounters, yet, while the more informal “stop and chat” encounters are ubiquitous, they are a comparatively under-researched part of policework. Design/methodology/approach The research takes…
From the street corner to call centre
Between 2009 and 2016, New Zealand Police experienced a disproportionate increase in lower-priority mental health-related calls. This exploratory study uses content analysis to identify characteristics of these calls, including reasons for calling police, advice and actions undertaken by communications centres staff, and actions undertaken by frontline officers. Four important findings emerge. First, there has been a significant increase in the p…
Switching on, switching off
Evidence-based policing is rapidly becoming adopted by policing agencies among policing jurisdictions. Many academic programmes have been established in higher education to train police managers in applied criminology. However, there is a lack of literature for police officer practitioner researchers (POPR) who might undertake qualitative research, especially research projects that examine police behaviour. This paper reflects on the changing rol…
Effectiveness and efficiency
Officers from the Norwegian police were routinely armed with firearms from July 2014 to February 2016 in response to a terror threat. This paper explores the experiences of a sample of officers (N = 16) who were routinely armed during this period. The research took a mixed-methods approach using semi-structured interviews one month before the policy was rescinded. Two key themes emerged. First, officers believed that being routinely armed was adv…
A disproportional increase in lower priority mental health-related calls to New Zealand Police between 2009 and 2016
Internationally police agencies reported steady increases in mental health-related demand for service. This increase in demand has significant implications on the resourcing and training needs of both frontline and call centre staff. Mental disorders comprise a broad range of psychological conditions and therefore are difficult to define concisely. In police’s operational environment, frontline and contact centre staff are often required to make …
