The Sunday Times (UK) discusses publication co-authored by Deakin Criminologist.
A publication co-authored by Deakin Criminologist, Dr Diarmaid Harkin, has been discussed in The Sunday Times (UK). The paper titled, ‘Policing in Cool and Hot Climates: Legitimacy, Power and the Rise and Fall of Mass Stop and Search in Scotland‘, was published by the British Journal of Criminology, and was based on the headline-making research of Dr Kath Murray (University of Edinburgh). The Sunday Times discusses the analysis of the authors that Police in Scotland benefited from a lack of political, media and academic scrutiny, leading to the unrolling of mass stop and search.
