ABSTRACT Pledging allegiance to a larger terrorist group is assumed to increase activities of religious terrorist groups because of cooperative relationships and further support. In a competing theory, a pledge to another group is viewed as symbolic to motivate a group’s supporters. Taking Al-Shabaab terrorism as a case, the current study tests the extent to which those competing theories are valid for frequencies of bombings and relevant fatalities. Even though Al-Shabaab pledged allegiance to al-Qaeda since 2012, the literature lacks an empirical test of whether or not a significant change occurred in Al-Shabaab’s attacks after the pledge. Drawing on data from the Global Terrorism Database results from our vector autoregressive (VAR) analysis indicate that the frequency and lethality of Al-Shabaab’s bombing attacks and fatalities did not change significantly in the post-pledge period. The contributions of our findings to the terrorism literature are discussed and policy implications for counterterrorism efforts are considered.

ABSTRACT Studies exploring how workplace factors contribute to job stress among police officers are not rare, but studies specifically examining how work–family conflict is associated with the job involvement and satisfaction of police officers are. In this study, data from 827 Indian police officers were used to examine the relationships of the four dimensions of work–family conflict (time-, strain-, behaviour-, and family-based) and other stressors (perceived dangerousness of the job, role conflict, role ambiguity, role underload, and role overload) with police officers’ job involvement and satisfaction. Time-based conflict was found to be associated with higher job involvement while family-based conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload were not. Perceived dangerousness of the job was found to be associated with higher job satisfaction while time – and strain-based conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload were not.

ABSTRACT Law enforcement and security agencies around the globe have integrated geospatial analysis into their intelligence workflow to profile serial offenders, track suspects, and direct crime reduction/prevention efforts. Expansion to spatio-temporal analyses may yield significant and relevant information to better understand the underlying factors of crime. Among the current spatio-temporal methods to associate crimes is near repeat analysis. The premise of the near repeat phenomenon is that if a given location is the target of a crime, nearby locations will have an increased chance of being targeted for a limited time with the level of risk decaying with distance from the original target and over time. Robust analytical methods were developed to discover and further understand spatio-temporal clustering of crime incidents. The open source nature of these functions facilitate transparency and reproducibility in the analytical method and implementation across agencies/police management systems. Firstly, a new method for near repeat analysis is presented which expands current techniques through graphical linkage of crime incidents given spatio-temporal proximity. Next, this method is used to evaluate the prevalence of near repeats across cities of scale. Given this, a method for determining optimal parameters is presented and utilised to determine the optimal parameters (inter-incident time/distance).

ABSTRACT Since the Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) launched their military offensive against al-Shabaab in 2011, the country has experienced an unprecedented number of retaliatory attacks mounted by the jihadist-insurgent group. These attacks prompted a robust domestic counter-terrorism response that disproportionately targeted ethnic Somalis within Kenya. Using 2008 and 2014 data from the Afrobarometer and exploiting of the temporal variation in terrorist attacks, this study evaluates whether this period of terrorist attacks and intense counter-terrorism measures affected ethnic Somali minorities’ public perceptions towards the police and the government differently from other ethnic groups in Kenya. We find that the period following the 2011 intervention had significant varying impact on public perceptions between ethnic Somalis and other ethnic groups.

ABSTRACT Police-public relations in Nigeria has been marred by issues of distrust, torture and violence. This study adopts a systematic review to fill a gap on the interventions relied on to improve public trust for the police in Nigeria and public perspectives of these interventions. 11 studies met the inclusion criteria. Informed by the principles of thematic analysis, it was found that there were scepticism, lack of trust, and perceived ineffectiveness of community policing interventions. The review recommends community-informed randomised controlled trial interventions in tandem with the police in order to foster public trust and legitimacy for the police.
