Re-shaping Policing: Ideas in Action

This Special Issue addresses an issue that continues to be at the heart of policing studies, namely, the manner in which policing is being re-shaped. In exploring this question the contributors herein seek to explore the factors that have been driving transformations in policing in time- and space-specific contexts as well as globally. They also examine the ideas shaping the change-making efforts of particular institutions and groupings in their attempts to respond to such drivers. In essence, their concern is with ideas in action.
