Crime and Policing: Past and Present

The History Programme recently co-sponsored a one-day Knowledge Exchange Workshop on Crime and Policing: Past and Present with the Scottish Institute for Policing Research (SIPR) at the University of Dundee. 

This was the first in a planned series of events intended to provide a unique forum for historians and other academics to engage with crime and policing professionals, with the aim of sharing and enhancing mutual knowledge and research agendas. The series is particularly intended to provide an opportunity for contemporary crime and policing issues to be considered from a historical perspective.

The event was co-organised by Professor Nicholas Fyfe (SIPR), Dr Murray Frame & Dr Anja Johansen (History) and was administered by Tim Heilbronn (SIPR).

The day's proceedings included a keynote address from the eminent historian of policing Professor Clive Emsley. Further details and links to the Workshop podcasts
