Predictive policing has captured the imagination of both enthusiasts hoping to improve public safety and opponents raising concerns around algorithmic bias and opacity. Based on seven in-depth interviews with officers in a UK police force, this artic...

Mapping a public discourse with the tools of computational text analysis comes with many contingencies in the areas of corpus curation, data processing and analysis, and visualisation. However, the complexity of algorithmic assemblies and the beauty... Read More about Computational text analysis: Thoughts on the contingencies of an evolving method.
