How does the journal compare with Policing and Society, the quarterly academic journal published by Routledge?
These two journals are similar in many ways. Very often papers that appear in one of the journals could just as appropriately have been published in the other. I think there is a difference in terms of the purposes of the journals. As I understand it, Police and Society is directed more at explaining what and how police officers and organizations behave. For example, a paper exploring the impact of crime rates on police staffing might be most appropriate for Police and Society. In contrast, here at Policing, I think our primary focus is on understanding the impact of police actions. A paper exploring the relationship between patrol staffing and crime rates would be appropriate. For most people this difference may be too subtle. To me it is rather clear. There should be a relationship between crime and police staffing. The difference is whether we want to explain what the police do (staffing levels – Police and Society) or the impact of police action (changes in crime rates associated w
