The cases can involve both contemporary descriptions of crises, model responses (such a police-mental health co-response), empirical studies using both quantitative and qualitative data, historical analyses of past episodes of police crises, and policy and legal responses.
The quality of police service suffers from the cumulative effect of these potentially interconnected threats. Past efforts at building public trust and sustaining effective police are often forgotten and past ills continue and are at times exacerbated by contemporary conditions.
The special issue editors are seeking submissions from practitioners and academics on these topics. IJPS serves a global audience and seeks case studies from throughout the world on these topics.
The erosion of public trust is amplified by political division and the rise of authoritarian regimes. Extremism and radicalization occur within society and potentially among police ranks.
• Police radicalization and extremism (including police gangs).
These issues are not country specific. Crises of policing are found in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, Australia, and elsewhere.
• Police response to the mentally ill and homeless,
• Police response to active shooter and school violence,
• Police corruption and misconduct,
• Police response to riots, disorder, and public order incidents,
• Police response to transnational organized crime and gangs,
• Police-Community relations, perceived/actual inequity, and erosion of public trust,
• Police use of deadly force,
• Police recruitment, hiring, and retention of qualified officers,
• Police suicides, emotional trauma, and wellness
