Concentrating on the population-level picture, and on England and Wales, in this article I outline what we know about changes in ‘trust and confidence’ over the past two decades or so, and make comparison with changes in other, closely associated, indicators. Why it might be that over this period trust in police first increased significantly, and then declined? Answers to this question implicate what might be termed the political economy of trust. Change in public trust may be due to a whole set of factors operating across multiple levels of policing and the society in which it takes place. International Journal of Police Science & Management 26/11/2024 Research article Steering a path to cultural change: Emerging and enduring characteristics of policing cultures in the UK In the 25 years since the first issue of the International Journal of Police Science & Management was published, policing has undergone significant change as a result of economic, political and social change. Yet this period has unfortunately been bookended by the Macpherson Report in 1999 and the Casey Review in 2023, both highly critical of the occupational cultures within policing. This article takes the issue of policing cultures and examines the extent to which early ethnographic writings on the everyday realities of policing reflect the cultures of today and examines the potential and the desire for both continued research in this area and for cultural change itself. An understanding of cultural characteristics as individual layers contributing to the overall sedimentation of policing practices enables us to see how change, albeit slowly, can potentially happen. The article also suggests, however, that the tendency towards conformity within policing – in terms of both conforming to organisational working practices and norms and conforming to informal occupational cultures – puts pressure on everyone within the policing organisation to ‘fit in’, restricting difference, challenge and ultimately, significant change. A better understanding of the deep roots of occupational cultures within policing and an appreciation of both its benefits and appeal is necessary for a whole organisation approach to reform.

Evidence-based police-led diversion 25 years on It is more than 25 years since Lawrence Sherman delivered his ‘Ideas in American Policing’ lecture on ‘evidence-based policing’ for the US Police Foundation. The original work [Sherman LW (1998) Evidence-Based Policing. Ideas in American Policing. Washington, DC: Police Foundation], Sherman’s equally seminal study on ‘preventing crime’ [Sherman LW, Gottfredson D, MacKenzie D, et al. (1997) Preventing Crime: What Works, What Doesn’t, What’s Promising. Washington, DC: Office of Justice Programs] and the subsequent development of evidence-based policing in the ‘Triple T’ [Sherman LW (2013) The rise of evidenced-based policing: targeting, testing and tracking. In: Tonry M (ed.) Crime and Justice in America 1975–2025. Chicago: University of Chicago Press] have been immensely influential as well as, for some, controversial. In 1998, Sherman challenged scholars, practitioners and policymakers to use the ‘best available evidence’ to guide policy and practice. He then posed four questions: ‘What is it? What is new about it? How does it apply to a specific example of police practice? How can it be institutionalized?’. Taking the lead from Sherman's questions, this contribution to the 25-year anniversary collection focuses on one example – police-led diversion – to illustrate the development and challenges of institutionalizing evidence-based policing since 1998.
