Beschreibung

With contributions from international policing experts, this book is the first of its kind to bring together a broad range of scholarship on translational criminology and policing. Translational criminology aims to understand the obstacles and facilitators to implementing research by decisionmakers to improve effectiveness, fairness, and efficiency in the criminal justice system. Although the emergence of the translation of knowledge from research to policy and practice has gained momentum in policing in recent years, it is imperative to understand the specific mechanisms required to create collaborative structures to produce and disseminate information. This progressive and cutting-edge collection of articles addresses the growing interest in creating and advancing evidence-based policing through translational mechanisms. It describes a varied, dynamic, and iterative decision-making process in which researchers and practitioners work simultaneously to generate and implement evidence-based research. Not only does this book incorporate a process for translating criminological information, it offers varying perspectives on researcher-practitioner partnerships around the world.

Translational Criminology in Policing provides practical principles to help research, practitioner, and policymaker audiences facilitate evidence translation and research-practitioner partnerships. It is essential reading for policing scholars and policymakers, and may serve as a reference and textbook for courses and further research in translational criminology in policing.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

I think this book will make an important contribution in the areas of translational criminology and evidence-based policing given the expertise of the editors and the array of international policing experts who are contributing articles. I also think it stands to sell well in a time when police are facing pressure to reform, police agencies are requiring more training and education for officers to be eligible for promotions, academic departments are launching more applied Master's programs, and there is a growth of online programs with courses on evidence-based policy for which this book would be well suited.
-Joshua Hinkle, Associate Professor of Criminal Justice and Criminology, Georgia State UniversityT

The concept of "Translational Criminology" can have an enormous impact within the field of criminal justice, and the current national (and international) clamor for improving police practices creates the perfect storm for this book to be released. If we are going to make substantive improvements in evidence-based policing (and processing through the justice system), we must make sure that we are not only implementing practices that have been proven to bring about sustainable change but that they also are understood and accepted by those on the front lines. Everyone in the field would benefit from this publication.
-Susan Broderick, Program Director, National District Attorneys Association
