The Journal of Policing, Intelligence and Counter Terrorism (JPICT) provides an international forum for research on the areas of policing, intelligence, and terrorism studies, and their interactions. JPICT accepts original theoretical and conceptual perspectives as well as new empirical research on contemporary security issues relating to these themes. Published research draws on multiple disciplines and is oriented towards bridging the gap between scholarly and practitioner communities.
The Journal provides a unique emphasis on research that examines the professions and practicalities of policing, intelligence, and counter terrorism, as well as on their intersections in theory and practice. Accepted articles may focus on a single theme and be purely research focussed, or may combine original research with practical considerations and insights drawn from practitioner and policymaker communities. The Journal also provides a space in its Forum section for scholarly practitioners to contribute to debates and cutting-edge perspectives in these fields.
The Journal makes an essential contribution for academics, practitioners, and policymakers concerned with policing, intelligence, and terrorism and counter terrorism.
