HISTORY OF BLACK POLICE ASSOCIATIONS
Laurie hears about the growth and growing success of Black Police Associations.Ìý From almost accidental beginnings to a point where associations have been established in most constabularies in England and Wales, the pace of development has marked a significant change in the organisation and articulation of race relations within the police workforce.
Laurie Taylor and Professor , Director of Sheffield University’s Centre for Criminological Research and former police officer review the evidence.
EATING CHINESE
Laurie Taylor explores the role of British courtship practises in the explosion of Chinese restaurants and finds out about eating, diet and culture when he talks to Dr J.A.G. (Bill) Roberts, a historian of Western perceptions of China and Professor , an expert on the sociology of all manner of foods.
Together they sample the different ways different cultures develop specific cuisines and some of the factors which lead to their mutation in foreign climes. For the Chinese in Britain, one enormous influence was inevitably the limitations of British taste buds.
