Researching Organised Crime, Security & Policing

Welcome to our Researchingsecurity Blog!

We are a group of several PhD students researching issues related to organised crime, security and policing across the globe. Contrary to what many of our colleagues, relatives and friends think, it is “possible” to research these topics, contribute to a better understanding of research practises and still come back home safely from our field research trips.

This blog is a platform for exchanging experiences, discussing methodology and ethics, keeping up to date with funding opportunities and staying in touch with young academics in the field.
