From the Editor-in-Chief

As  we embark  upon  a new  Volume  of PPR,  Volume  17, with the first issue, I find it
interesting to reflect on what PPR stands for. PPR is disseminated globally and it is a
purely international journal in scope, philosophy, and practice. PPR encourages multidis-
ciplinary approaches. Dedicated to the ideal of collaboration between police research
and   practice, the journal  welcomes collaborative work between scholars and
practitioners as well as research based contributions of practitioners.
    This issue carries good news. Research  and practice collaboration in policing has
become   more  respected and  sought after. Readers will find an announcement   of  a
meeting of International Police Executive Symposium, IPES, www.ipes.info  (PPR affili-
ated with IPES); It will be hosted in Washington DC by George  Washington  University
(8-13  August 2016).  We  are expecting a big slice of the globe in the meeting, with
researchers and practitioners assembling in a most congenial venue, to discuss, debate,
interact, and exchange views on issues of research and practice in policing.
    The mission, mandate, and aspiration of PPR are carried forward by two book series,
'Advances  in Police Theory and Practice' and 'Interviews with Global Leaders in Policing,
Courts and Prisons'. PPR readers are invited to contribute to both the series and thereby to
the bigger cause of enrichment of practice by research and vice versa in the world of polic-
ing. I am glad to announce that, apart from interviews with police leaders, judges, and prison
executives, we have just added a new series on prosecutors and defense attorneys. The first
volume  on prosecutors and defense attorney will be published this year.
    As we  begin the new year for the journal it must be reiterated that PPR is what the
authors, reviewers, and the editors bring to it. We strive for contributions befitting our
mission and goal. In the upcoming Annual  Meeting of the Academy   of Criminal Justice
Sciences in (Denver, Colorado) in March  we shall announce winners  of the Best Paper
Award  and the Runner-Up  for 2015.
    We  wish our  readers, editors including the Commentating  Editor of the Issue 1,
reviewers and  last but not the least our authors as well as book reviewers A VERY
HAPPY   NEW YEAR.
