Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) 9/11/2021 Report Understanding the Reconstruction of Police Professionalism in the UK This article begins by exploring the development of police professionalism in the UK. It considers the drivers that have shaped the direction of police professionalism in England and Wales, including the influence of professional and institutional logics. Next, it outlines the current phase of ‘professionalism’, examining what has influenced the adoption of the current normative framework with specific reference to the PEQF and evidenced-based approaches. It will argue that attempts to re-professionalise the police have tended to be situated between ‘ideal types’ of professionalism, one which favours ‘professional trust and autonomy’ driven by professionals themselves towards a model of organisational professionalism motivated by a desire to standardise and limit occupational autonomy. Latterly, it will argue that these ‘ideal types’ used to conceptualise the changing nature of police professionalism fail to account for broader reconfigurations that shape professional identifies fully. Drawing mainly on the work of Noordegraaf [2016. Reconfiguring professional work: changing forms of professionalism in public services. Administration & Society, 48 (7), 783–810; 2020. Protective or connective professionalism? How connected professionals can (still) act as autonomous and authoritative experts.

Policing Insight - Subscription at source 8/11/2021 Feature The Ethics of Policing: New Perspectives on Law Enforcement By no small measure, quite the most thought-provoking book on policing in some time. Uppermost among the thoughts provoked: how many police officers, including those of senior rank, reach retirement age after a lifetime of police service without fully realizing what policing is or means? Those who do not understand how that is a question that can even be asked, probably would benefit significantly from reading this collection of powerful, often discomforting, essays. Their focus is policing in America today but reading about the lived experience of policing/being policed in Ferguson, Missouri, or Milwaukee, Wisconsin, one could just as easily be reading about Newham, London (UK); Redfern, Sydney (Australia); Fort McMurray, Alberta (Canada): the quest for lawful policing versus effective policing; uncertain conceptions of legitimate policing and professional norms; ‘rewards’ for ‘real’ police work that undermine reform and resolution; the intrinsic and systemic injustice of racial bias—topics that transcend national,.. Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice - Subscription at source 8/11/2021 Research article Foreign-born arrestees and recidivism: a multilevel analysis of arrest data from a Florida county Sheriff’s office Using approximately 30,000 arrest records from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office in Florida and neighborhood characteristics from the U.S. Census American Community Survey, this study examines the relationship between foreign-born status and recidivism. In addition, we investigate whether any plausible relationship between foreign-born status and recidivism is conditioned by neighborhood characteristics. The results from hierarchical logistic regression analyses reveal that foreign-born offenders are less likely to recidivate than native offenders. Furthermore, the negative effect on recidivism for foreign-born offenders is amplified in neighborhoods with higher socioeconomic inequality. We discuss implications for policy and future research.
