The Policing and Society Conference is a venue where Icelandic and international academics and professionals meet and converse about policing in a broad sense. This year’s conference theme is Violence.
The Police Science Program at the University of Akureyri (Iceland) invites abstracts for its 6th Policing and Society Conference on October 4 and 5, 2023. The conference is a venue where Icelandic and international academics and professionals meet and converse about policing in a broad sense. Professionals and academics who work in fields that involve policing in one form or another are encouraged to submit abstracts that build on their work and/or research.
The keynote speakers reflect the theme of this year’s conference: Violence – in a broad sense. Violence refers to the use of physical force or power to cause harm. Manifestations of violence are various and are not limited to physical violence. Violence exists everywhere and has serious consequences. Thus, it is always important to identify ways to address and reduce violence.
