And to add to that, what similarities or differences are there between American and Swedish police perspectives on good and bad police officers? Find out in this new episode of NIRO Knowledge.

Here it is! We are going Back to the Future! Well, we're looking back in history in order to look ahead into the future and take with us the principles of the Father of Policing, Sir Robert Peel. These core values and his principles can guide us towards a better vision on what policing should have remained as. We have some catching up to do since we derailed the community involved aspect of policing along with the idea that reducing crime (thus reducing our victims) is the goal.
