First of all, Kerry Griffiths (UK) and colleagues report on their systematic literature review (carried out in the framework of an international research project) on knowledge sharing in and between police organisations in Europe. They show that
criminal intelligence and technology were at the core of this type of research and discuss the main recommendations that were formulated in these studies.

Petter Gottschalk (Norway), in the second paper, focuses on another dimension of policing. He analysed investigation reports by private internal investigators and uses this analysis to discuss four problematic issues: privatization of law enforcement, disclosure, competence and limits of private investigations.
Thirdly, Jannie Noppe (Belgium) contributes to the literature on the use of force by police officers. The author reports on her test of an integrative action theory that was carried out by means of a survey among Belgian police officers. This paper discusses the links between the moral support for the use of force and trust or respect for the police, but also between moral support for and the actual use of force.
The fourth article, by Sara Stronks (the Netherlands) explores the function of reconciliation in police-citizens relationships. On the basis of interviews, she finds that security and compatibility are important in police-citizens relationships. The author describes how reconciliation can play an important role in relationship maintenance.
This issue is concluded by a book review by Sophie Body-Gendrot on ‘Riots and Political Protest’ (Winlow, Hall, Treadwell & Briggs, 2014).
