Through the lens of South Wales Police, this volume reflects upon the changing role of the police in society. Conceptually, by connecting the pasts, presents and futures of policing, each chapter individually and collectively demonstrates how some of today’s challenges and controversies about policing in the UK are deep-seated. Uniquely co-authored by a blend of police practitioners and expert academics, Policing Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow explores how a range of social, political and economic influences impact upon the contemporary organisation and conduct of police work. Key topics covered across the chapters, include community and neighbourhood policing; major crime investigation; police finances; violence prevention; gender and policing; police technologies; and leadership.
