RT Article T1 David Bayley: a personal reminiscence JF International journal of comparative and applied criminal justice VO 45 IS 3 SP 245 OP 248 A1 Marenin, Otwin LA English YR 2021 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1765097932 AB I have known David Bayley personally for a long time and followed his career over the years. David’s reputation and status in the profession rests, I think, on four basic achievements. One was his ability to connect micro level analyses of the police who do policing, as well as other actors on fields of security, to larger national and even global trends. He placed the police squarely into the politics of their locations as powerful political actors. He used democracy in its shifting connotations to judge how well police were performing their job. And he convincingly argued that knowledge gained needed to be used to improve and manage policies. K1 retrospective K1 International K1 Biography K1 Policing K1 Bayley, David H.
