About this Unit
The unit will focus on issues that impact on contemporary policing, and the future of policing. The unit will contextualise policing practice by introducing students to the historical, legal, political and social context of this practice. The unit will then consider contemporary issues for policing such as social inclusion and community engagement, working with cognitive disability, transnational crime and newly defined crimes due to technological advancements. The implications of these developments for policing organisations in the future will be considered.
