Criminologen over de private veiligheidssector

In de sector van de private veiligheid is een uiteenlopend gezelschap van criminologen aan de slag. Na hun studies hebben ze elk hun eigen unieke pad bewandeld en hun eigen bijdrage geleverd aan de private invulling van de bescherming van onze samenleving. Daarbij hebben ze waardevolle ervaringen en expertise verzameld. Dit boek opent de deuren naar dit intrigerende werkveld. Ruim dertig professionals vertellen over hun beslissing om Criminologische Wetenschappen te studeren, over hun betrokkenheid en eerste kennismaking met de private veiligheidssector, en over hun visies op de toekomst van deze branche. Zo belicht dit boek niet alleen de complexiteit van het dagelijkse werk, maar verschaft het eveneens inzicht in de verschillende carrièremogelijkheden binnen deze sector. Of je nu student, pas afgestudeerd of gewoonweg nieuwsgierig bent, dit boek biedt de perfecte introductie tot de sector van private veiligheid. Deze uitgave is de eerste in de nieuwe boekenreeks van de Criminologists Association for Private Security (CAPS).

Private veiligheidsactoren in België

In de organisatie van onze private veiligheid spelen heel wat private en publieke organisaties een belangrijke rol. Het gaat om beroepsverenigingen, opleidingsinstellingen, kennisinstellingen en afnemers, evenals de Directie Private Veiligheid. Traditioneel staan in het wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar het private veiligheidslandschap echter vaak enkel de actoren centraal die zelf diensten van private veiligheid aanbieden, zoals de bewakingsondernemingen. Dit boek brengt daarentegen net ook de ruimere groep spelers en professionals in kaart en laat ze zelf aan het woord. Een dertigtal auteurs geven hun visie weer op de rol van private veiligheid, de huidige wetgeving en toekomstige opportuniteiten en uitdagingen voor de private sector. Ook geven ze een gedetailleerde beschrijving van hun eigen organisatie. Dit originele boek verruimt de blik op veiligheid in het algemeen en private veiligheid in het bijzonder.

PolBru 20 ans/jaar

Vingt ans après la fusion des polices communales de Bruxelles et d’Ixelles en 2002, la zone de police PolBru fait le bilan d’une évolution passionnante. Après la réforme de la police, les anciens gendarmes se sont soudainement vus intégrés au niveau local. Les nombreux événements nationaux et internationaux dans la capitale ont dû alors être encadrés au niveau local, qui devait également continuer d’assurer les fonctionnalités de base au profit du citoyen. Ce livre revient non seulement sur les vingt ans de la zone de police PolBru, mais aborde également des thèmes sociaux plus larges, comme celui de la diversité qui caractérise la zone. Un ouvrage de référence pour ...

Les acteurs de la sécurité privée en Belgique

Les recherches scientifiques existantes sur la sécurité privée se concentrent généralement sur les acteurs qui fournissent des activités de sécurité privée en tant que services à des tiers, comme le cas des sociétés de gardiennage. De nombreuses autres organisations privées et publiques tiennent toutefois un rôle majeur dans le champ de la sécurité privée. C’est le cas, par exemple, des associations professionnelles, des organismes de formation, des institutions de connaissance et des clients, ainsi que de la Direction Sécurité privée. La parole donnée aux multiples acteurs et professionnels présentés dans cet ouvrage permet de combler certaines lacunes en matière d...

Challenging the boxes

Challenges of sustainability and transition need innovative tools for the understanding, mapping, designing and governing of manmade sites and territories. Complementary to standard land use categories, such as housing and agriculture, this book of essays introduces eleven ‘interface categories’, labels for land use interactions, transitions, mixes, and spatial and temporal positions in between. Authors from different disciplines describe and illustrate how this set of interfaces resonates with their own projects, challenges and agendas, and how it sheds light on new land use agents, on unregistered forms of land occupation, and on opportunities for socio-economic and ecosystem services. The concept of interfaces encourages the development of adapted modes of planning and management for urban, rural or natural environments, and on different spatial scales.

The Maritime World of Early Modern Britain

Britain's emergence as one of Europe's major maritime powers has all too frequently been subsumed by nationalistic narratives that focus on operations and technology. This volume, by contrast, offers a daring new take on Britain's maritime past. It brings together scholars from a range of disciplines to explore the manifold ways in which the sea shaped British history, demonstrating the number of approaches that now have a stake in defining the discipline of maritime history. The chapters analyse the economic, social, and cultural contexts in which English maritime endeavour existed, as well as discussing representations of the sea. The contributors show how people from across the British Isles increasingly engaged with the maritime world, whether through their own lived experiences or through material culture. The volume also includes essays that investigate encounters between English voyagers and indigenous peoples in Africa, and the intellectual foundations of imperial ambition.

It considers the following questions: What is historical criminology? What does thinking historically about crime and justice entail? How is historical criminology currently practised? What are the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches to historical criminology? How can historical criminology reshape understandings of crime and social responses to crime? H...

Lyn MacDonald's acclaimed history 1914: The Days of Hope, is not so much the story of war as the story of an army. In this vivid account of the first months of the First World War, Lyn Macdonald draws on personal accounts of surviving veterans, bringing to life the disillusionment, the questioning and the heroism of the men of the British Army. The officers and men of 1914 were prepared to fight and ready to lay down their lives because it was their job. These men believed they were fighting the War to end War. 'Once again Lyn Macdonald has collected an extraordinary mass of original accounts, some by old soldiers, some in the form of diaries and journals, even by French civilians . . . Her ...
