Call for Papers: Police Practice and Research

Manuscripts are solicited for Police Practice & Research: An International Journal (PPR) (www.tandf.co.uk/journals or www.ipes.info/journal.asp). PPR is a peer-reviewed, international journal that presents current and innovative academic police research as well as operational and administrative police practices from around the world. Manuscripts are sought from practitioners, researchers, and others interested in developments in policing, analysis of public order, and the state of safety as it affects the quality of life everywhere. The journal seeks to bridge the gap in knowledge that exists regarding who the police are, what they do, and how they maintain order, administer laws, and serve their communities in the world. Attention will also be focused on specific organizational information about the police in different countries and regions of the world. PPR publishes special issues on various topics of interest. Proposals for such issues are always welcome. The best papers presented at the Annual Meetings of IPES [International Police Executives Symposium] are also published in a special issue. A specific goal of the editors is to improve cooperation between those who are active in the field and those who are involved in academic research. To this end, the editors encourage the submission of manuscripts co-authored by police practitioners and researchers.
