College of Policing 6/8/2018 News Abductions and Disappearances in Bangladeshi Policing This article is about policing practice in Bangladesh, with special focus on the involvement of the Bangladeshi law enforcement agencies in abductions and disappearances. Recently, Bangladeshi policing has been criticized for abductions and forced disappearances. The empirical analysis of this article focuses on the key factors and dynamics of abductions and disappearances in Bangladeshi policing. This article also investigates how and why the law enforcement agencies in Bangladesh are engaged in abductions and disappearances based on interviews of different stakeholders. The empirical parts of the article employ qualitative techniques of data analysis in order to process the body of evidence collected during the fieldwork.

Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice - Registration at source 6/8/2018 Research article Learning from best practise in the fight against rural crime As rural crime rises in England and Wales, forces are looking to successful strategies to implement these into local areas National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) 6/8/2018 News Experiencing Organizational Change During An Era of Reform: Police Scotland, Narratives of Localism, and Perceptions From the ‘Frontline’ In 2011, the Scottish Government took the decision to create a single, national police force, reconfiguring a structure of regional police forces, which had prevailed since the 19th century. Despite a strong narrative around localism in the legislation establishing Police Scotland, the new force that was established in 2013 quickly found itself at the centre of a debate around an emerging ‘crisis of localism’ as critics expressed concerns over the centralization of decision-making and a lack of sensitivity to local contexts. Drawing on qualitative research carried out in four communities across Scotland in 2016, the analysis presented in this article examines the experience of organizational change from the perspective of officers in local policing teams and from local stakeholders. The analysis is structured around the strategic aims of reform of improved local service delivery, more equal local access to specialist expertise, and enhanced connections with local communities. The article highlights the sense of exclusion from the decision-making surrounding the organizational changes associated with the implementation of reform experienced by local, rank-and-file officers.

In response, the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC), the Australian Federal Police (AFP) and other Australian policing agencies have adopted several reform measures to improve intelligence capability support. While some have focused on developing specific criminal intelligence doctrine, others have sought to improve more challenging aspects of intelligence capability such as analytical and field collection workforce planning. The complexity of the current and emerging criminal environment and a growing professionalization of policing practice more broadly has resulted in a uniquely new strategic approach to developing the analytical and field collection workforce. This article surveys the development of an Australian Criminal Intel Training and Development Continuum (CITDC).
