Research Summary
For most of my career my principal research interest has been the politics of policing, on which I have completed several empirical studies and continue to publish. Between 1994-8 I conducted (with Professor Sonia Livingstone and Dr Jessica Allen) an ESRC-funded project analysing changing media representations of crime since World War II, which has resulted in several papers in recent years.
In recent years I have been researching and writing on the political economy of crime and crime control. This is reflected in my 2007 Polity book ''Law and Order: An Honest Citizen''s Guide to Crime and Control'', and several essays. A selection of my papers with a new theoretical introduction is to be published later this year by Ashgate, under the title ''Policing, Popular Culture and Political Economy: Towards A Social Democratic Criminology''.
