Glossary Version 0.1 Page 2 of 53 1. Foreword Welcome to Allerdale Borough Council’s first Corporate Improvement Plan. This Plan is very important for us, as it builds upon our ambitious Vision of making Allerdale “a great place to live, work and visit”, and takes it one step further to identify how, over the next five years we will work towards making it happen. In developing this plan, we have looked at what is important to our communities, rather than what legal duties as a Council we have to undertake. The way we have done this is by engaging with and listening to a wide range of views and opinions to ensure that our key priorities and focus are in line with local aspirations. We would like to thank all of the individuals and organisations who have supported us to this point and we look forward to continuing to nurture these relationships as we move forward into delivery, as we are very aware that in order for us to achieve our ambitions we will need to work with, and through, a range of partners.

  • Crimes of the Powerful and the Policing of Valid Knowledge

    Crimes of the Powerful and the Policing of Valid Knowledge

    The British Criminology Conference: Selected Proceedings. Volume 5. Papers from the British Society of Criminology Conference, Keele, July 2002. This volume published August 2003. Editor: Roger Tarling. ISSN 1464-4088. See end of file for copyright and other information. 'Behind the Line of Truncheons': Crimes of the Powerful and the Policing of Valid Knowledge. Dave Whyte Abstract This paper is concerned with the prospects for the development of criminological knowledge of the incidence of 'crimes of the powerful', as part of the current 'boom' in state-funded criminological knowledge. Following a brief analysis of the current trajectory of university based social science and a focus upon the scope and content of recent research commissioned by the Home Office, the paper turns to examine, with reference to an analysis of crime and disorder partnerships in the North West of England, the subject matter of data which informs local crime reduction and community safety strategies. The paper then discusses the forms of data that have been constructed as 'valid' by the Home Office, before concluding with a discussion of the prospects for the inclusion of 'crimes of the powerful' in future crime reduction agendas. Introduction Writing more than thirty years ago, Martin Nicolaus argued that western states' increasing tendency to resort to repression and social order maintenance was having a profound impact upon sociological research. As the use-value of sociology declined and funding for liberal sociological research faced a prolonged period of austerity in the US, one direction in which the sociologists would be forced in order to retain any marketable value would be in evaluating the impact and effectiveness of a rapidly expanding criminal justice system.
