Out of Place in Blue Space
This paper introduces the concept of ‘blue space’ as a theoretical framework for (re)defining the boundaries of police stops. Reflecting on ethnographic research with police officers in Scotland and England, we draw on Ahmed’s concept of ‘white space’ to understand police encounters with the public in ‘blue space’. We argue that police presence in ‘blue space’ acts as a stopping technology, which renders certain bodies as noticeable and out of pl…
Les contrôles policiers en Europe
La question des violences policières, très prégnante dans le débat public aux États-Unis depuis très longtemps, s’est aussi installée dans les débats français et prend une place croissante, sous l’effet de la médiatisation d’incidents majeurs et de l’intervention d’associations ou citoyens pour porter ces problématiques. Parmi les sujets jugés préoccupants en la matière, les contrôles de police — qui sont parfois à l’origine de telles violences —…
Ethnography and the Evocative World of Policing
Gone fishing
This article analyses the operation of police vehicle stop checks in England and Wales. In contrast to other common police powers, vehicle checks are remarkably under-regulated and have received little academic attention, but they are regularly used coercive powers supported by criminal sanction. Based upon a 6-year ethnographic study, including observations of 205 vehicle stops, this article sets out how stop checks are used as part of routine p…
Reflections on publishing ethnographic work
Where do ethnographers with an interest in how and why people organize themselves in particular ways go to publish, engage in discussions
Ethnography and the Evocative World of Policing (Part I)
Ethnography has proved to be a crucial methodology for entering and understanding the world of policing. Recent developments in the fields of policing, and within police organisations themselves, h

Playing the man, not the ball’
In efforts to combat organised crime, police forces have adopted variations on the pulling levers approach to individuals and groups identified with gun crime, drug supply and other serious offences. Once identified, those individuals and their networks are targeted for interventions from criminal justice agencies and their partners. When levers are pulled, criminals find their lives made intolerable by the attentions of multiple agencies. Identi…
Policy, Practicalities, and Pace s. 24
PACE, as amended by the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, establishes a complex framework of factors that police officers must consider during arrest decision making. Officers must possess a reason to arrest, it must be necessary to arrest for that reason, and they must give at least a ‘cursory consideration’ to alternatives. Based on a four‐year ethnographic study of frontline officers from two forces in Northern England, we argue tha…
The tyranny of research? Urban regeneration, ethnography, and the problem of unintended consequences
Following a case study of community development in public housing in Liverpool, UK, we present in this article three potential tyrannies of research. We show the tyranny of the researcher, of the method selection, and of the data. In so doing, we identify the methodological challenges of conducting research that seeks to privilege the voices and perspectives of the subjects in a participatory project. We examine whether the dangers of tyranny are…

Learning and practicing police craft
Purpose The authors consider current policy debates in the UK about the professionalisation of the police to respond to changing patterns of crime and, specifically, the suggestion that officers be educated to degree level. Drawing on the ethnographic evidence, the purpose of this paper is to focus attention on how officers learn, and continue to develop the applied, that is the craft aspects of the work of uniformed constables. Design/methodolog…

Sleep Discrepancy, Sleep Complaint, and Poor Sleep Among Older Adults
Discrepancy occurred across all groups but was pronounced among the group with both insomnia symptoms and complaints. This discrepancy may provide a means of quantifying and conceptualizing the transition from wake to sleep among older adults, particularly those with sleeping problems

Is ‘bareback’ a useful construct in primary HIV‐prevention? Definitions, identity and research
The terms bareback and bareback identity are increasingly being used in academic discourse on HIV/AIDS without clear operationalization. Using in-depth, face-to-face interviews with an ethnically diverse sample of 120 HIV-infected and -uninfected men, mainly gay-identifying and recruited online in New York City, this study explored respondents' definitions of bareback sex, the role that intentionality and risk played in those definitions, and whe…

Aesthetics and Music
Uniformity of format does not guarantee uniformity of content. Readers of David Davies's Aesthetics and Literature, in Continuum's new ‘Aesthetics and . . .’ series, will know that it is a lively and reliable guide to most contemporary disputes in the analytic philosophy of literature: the nature of literature, fiction, fictional characters, literature and the emotions, the cognitive value of literature, and so forth. While equally impressive, An…
Death and Social Order in Tokugawa Japan
Having previously dealt with two mainstays of temple life, prayer and play in and around Edo's famous Sensōji temple (Hur 2000), Nam-lin Hur now turns to arguably the most significant aspect of Buddhism in the Tokugawa period—death. Death and Social Order in Tokugawa Japan details the development of funerary Buddhism and what the author calls the “funerary patron household” system (danka seido) from its beginnings in the first half of the sevente…
A different kind of ethics
Drawing on four `tales from the field', provided one each by the authors, this article examines the ethical and moral dilemmas ethnographers can face during their research. In particular, we address two key questions. First, what does being ethical actually involve? Second, is there a moral duty owed by researchers and, if so, to whom is this duty owed? The article reviews current debates over ethics in ethnographic research, specifically the res…
Abusive partnerships
Purpose The purpose of this article is to critically consider the role of partnerships in regeneration. There has been a proliferation of partnerships at local, sub‐regional and regional levels, that has brought new people together around a shared agenda, and has sought to challenge and change the ways in which mainstream public services are delivered. Design/methodology/approach This article uses a qualitative approach drawing on previous resear…
The Roles of Commissions of Inquiry in the Policy Process
In their heyday, Royal Commissions played an important part in the policy-making process. By today, Royal Commissions have declined almost to the point of extinction. Nevertheless, a range of other commissions, committees and inquiries are still established. They have different status and take various forms but, in common with Royal Commissions, seek to broaden the basis of public policy-making beyond government, Parliament and interest groups, t…

Partnership and the Governance of Regeneration
This article seeks to challenge understandings of partnership in order to reframe the discussion of common problems of partnership working. The very term partnership has become so common as to have no clear meaning beyond being a `nice' alternative to long tried and tested forms of governance. Yet failing to understand the complexities that are inherent in the very nature of partnership poses serious dilemmas for those engaged in such schemes. Ad…
Joined Up Accountability
Accountability in complex organisational networks has been identified as particularly problematic, and an issue to be addressed, both in academic and in official documents. Indeed, in launching its new public service reform agenda, the Labour government has undertaken to address accountability at a later date rather than as an integral part of its approach to reform. This article seeks to address these questions of accountability, suggesting the …

Arnold, Plato, Socrates
Tracing the evolution of Plato's influence on Matthew Arnold (1822–1886) allows us to see the whole of Arnold's intellectual development more clearly. Plato is a central figure in Arnold's prose work, but up until the age of thirty-five Arnold saw himself as primarily a poet, and here the Platonic influence is minimal. 'Quiet Work' contains hints of Plotinus, and 'In Utrumque Paratus' explores the Plotinian idea of the world as an emanation from …
