考虑到帝国与大都市之间的物质联系，我们研究了警察的流动与发展中的警察精神、文化和专业知识的相互作用方式。尽管英国的治安表现为自愿和帝国式的治安，遵循爱尔兰的模式，是惩罚性的，但在两次世界大战期间，英国的警察局长大量从爱尔兰招募。在非殖民化期间，大规模遣返殖民地警察的障碍是由这些部队中“欧洲”成员的“军官阶级”性质和英国种族主义造成的，这些种族主义阻止了非白人普通士兵从一个部队转移到另一个部队。互动的特点是部署“本国”警察，特别是在塞浦路斯。英国高级警官也扮演了技术专家顾问的角色。英国和帝国的警务模式融合在一起，到20世纪80年代，在皇家国防研究学院（Royal College of Defence Studies）培训挑选出来的高级英国警察，取代了回归的前殖民地警察的专业知识。
Considering the material links between empire and metropole, we examine the way that the movement of police officers interacted with developing police ethos, culture and expertise. Although British policing was represented as consensual and Imperial policing, following the Irish pattern, as punitive, in the inter-war period British chief constables were recruited in significant numbers from Ireland. Barriers to the large-scale repatriation of colonial police during decolonisation were created by the ‘officer-class’ nature of the ‘European’ members of these forces, and British racism which prevented non-white rank-and-file from transferring from force to force. Interaction was characterised by the deployment of ‘home’ police, most significantly to Cyprus. Senior British police officers also played the role of technocratic consultants. British and Imperial models of policing converged, and by the 1980s the expertise of returned ex-colonial police was being replaced by training selected senior British police in the haut police role at the Royal College of Defence Studies.
