Abstract

In this paper two current police research traditions are examined, the critical police research and policy police research, as they have evolved in the USA, the UK, and in Australia. Each tradition has developed a typical pattern of relationship between researchers and police practitioners, but both suffered from what we call the ‘dialogue of the deaf.’ While acknowledging the continuing importance of each approach to police research, we suggest the need for a third new approach to be developed in which academics and police work in close and continuous collaborative relationships.
