Policing Practices and Vulnerable People
This textbook addresses existing gaps in police research, education, and training, and provides guidance on how to respond to and address the vulnerability that arises in policing practice. It guides students through the conceptual and also the practical issues of managing vulnerability in policing with case studies and practitioners’ views from the UK, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the US, Canada, France, and beyond to the Maldives, China, India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. It includes key concepts, views from the front-line, further reading and activities in each chapter. Policing Practices and Vulnerable People is aimed at researchers and practitioners working with police. While focussed on democratic policing practices, this book includes case studies and practitioners’ views from a wide range of approaches, including those from the Global South. This book provides readers with a framework that can assist them in converting conceptual knowledge to critical, ethical policing practice.
Policing Encounters with Vulnerability
This edited collection brings together scholars and practitioners to consider the ways in which policing organisations approach vulnerability and the strategies they develop to reduce victims, offenders and police officers’ susceptibility to increased harm. Based on their work with policing services, the public criminologists and critical policing scholars collected together in this edited volume consider vulnerability in terms of people, processes, and institutional practices. While more attention is being paid to some experiences of vulnerability — particularly at the later stages of the criminal justice process — this collection will be the first to focus on the specific issues faced by policing services as the front end of criminal justice. The case studies of vulnerability in each chapter offer the reader new insights into the operational concerns in working with vulnerable people (including vulnerable police officers). This collection is ideally suited for scholars of applied criminal justice studies (including policing studies), police recruits and officers in training, and policing practitioners such as policy and program development officers.

Critical analyses of policing have accompanied accounts of the police since the early days of modern police organisations. More so than ever, police and policing are subject to close and critical scrutiny from governments and the public. It is timely, therefore, to consider what is critical about police and policing. The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Policing Studies brings together scholars and practitioners to critically explore the full continuum of safety governance from police reforms to the redistribution of policing resources to the replacement of state police. In offering the three Rs of policing—reform, redistribute, replace—we provide a conceptualisation of critical policing studies that acknowledges a continuum of policing that mirrors the different trajectories, priorities, and possibilities that exist across different cultural and historical contexts. This collection is composed of 65 scholars and practitioners across 39 chapters, edited by a team of police pracademics and policing scholars, to showcase accounts of policing from outside the Anglo-European metropole, privileging works from First Nations people and from the Global South, and presenting contextualised solutions to the problems facing police and communities. This Handbook identifies the key issues facing the police and safety governance across the globe and offers insights into the implications for policing theory and practice, proposing solutions to some of the most intransigent problems facing contemporary societies. Individually, and as a collection, this Handbook will be an essential read for scholars, practitioners, and activists alike.
