The Telegraph 14/11/2019 News Cyrille Fijnaut: A Pioneer From the Low Countries Inspired by American pioneers in the field of police research like Jerome Skolnick, Cyrille Fijnaut resigned in 1969 as a police lieutenant from the police force in the city of Tilburg, the Netherlands in order to create the opportunity to study criminology and philosophy at the KU Leuven in Belgium. At the same university, he wrote in the years 1974–1978 his Ph.D. dissertation on the political history of policing in Europe since the Napoleonic Era. This thesis became the starting point of a rich career as a professor of criminology and criminal law at the Erasmus University Rotterdam, the KU Leuven, Tilburg University and NYU Law School (Global Law School Programme). Over the years, he became an internationally renowned expert in the fields of police and judicial cooperation, organized crime and terrorism, and the transatlantic history of criminology and the criminal justice system. In these and other fields he wrote some 50 books and edited some 50 volumes, and published more than 400 articles in academic and professional journals. In addition, he was one of the founding fathers of the Belgian journal of criminology and criminal law Panopticon and the European Journal of Crime, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice. He also served as an expert in some of Dutch and Belgian committees of inquiry, e.g. the committee that investigated the safety and security problems of Pim Fortuyn, the Dutch politician who was killed in May 2002. The Dutch government rewarded him with a Knighthood in the Order of the Dutch Lion, and the Belgian government appointed him Commandeur in the Crown Order.

Results indicate that CPIU detectives rated themselves as having a moderate ability to recognize ADHD in interviewees and only a moderate awareness of how ADHD may impact the interviewing process but reported an average confidence in their ability to conduct a modified cognitive interview with ADHD-affected youth. CPIU detectives reported a below-average satisfaction with prior training provided to equip them in this area as well as below average confidence in their ability to access any possible existing training in this area. Detectives also report a moderately high desire for a new training program focused on interviewing youth with ADHD, with a preference for training that involves online learning, followed closely by workshops and role plays.

However, these organisations often struggle with the implementation of ILP. Literature suggests that successful implementation of ILP requires changes to a broad range of organisational aspects. It is however unclear what these aspects are and how they affect ILP. This research aims to identify organizational factors that enable ILP in the Dutch police, by means of a literature review and a case study, by conducting 15 investigations on organized drugs crime, football and safety in two different units of the Dutch police. Various elements have been identified that affect the functioning of ILP. These elements have been categorized into technological, structural, cultural, and people, which are integrated into a maturity model. By means of the maturity model the enablers can be assessed, priorities for improvement can be determined and targeted improvement strategies can be derived. The findings and the maturity model can help police organisations to improve the implementation of ILP.

In recent years, a debate has emerged about whether four factors—lawfulness, procedural justice, distributive justice, and effectiveness—are possible sources of legitimacy judgments (Tyler in Annual Review of Psychology 57, 375–400, 2006) or actual components of legitimacy (Tankebe in Criminology 51, 103–135, 2013). My goal in the present paper is review the contours of this debate.
