Neighbourhood policing in transition: perspectives from the police and the public
Thu, September 4, 8:00 to 9:15am, Communications Building (CN), CN 2105Session Submission Type: Pre-arranged Panel
Abstract
This panel explores the evolving role of neighbourhood policing in diverse social and political contexts, drawing on research from Scotland, England, Germany, India, Belgium and the Netherlands. The contributions investigate key themes such as the impact of technology on officer discretion, public and police perspectives on digital police-public contact, factors influencing citizens’ perceptions of neighbourhood police officers, and the intersection of neighbourhood dynamics, social inequalities, and policing. Together, these studies offer valuable insights into the changing nature of neighbourhood policing
