The Anthology 4 Preface This anthology forms part of the “Good practice for dialogue and communication as strategic principles for policing political manifestations in Europe” (GODIAC) project. The anthology is one of four documents produced by the GODIAC project. The other documents include a booklet summarising the field study results, a handbook on the peer-review method and ten individual field study reports. The purpose of the project was to identify and spread good practice in relation to dialogue and communication as strategic principles in managing and preventing public disorder at political manifestations in order to uphold fundamental human rights and to increase public safety at these events in general. The overall idea of the project has been to integrate operative police work, research and training within the field and to build international and institutional networks. The main target group for the anthology is police commanders, researchers and trainers that wish to increase their knowledge on the social identities of demonstrators and activists, their motivation, mobility and strategies. The material also addresses dialogue and communication as strategic principles and promotes the evaluation of policing major events to stimulate lessons to be learnt. The project co-ordinator was the Swedish National Police Board. There were twenty partner organisations in twelve European countries. These consisted of twelve police organisations and eight research/educational organisations. The project ran between 1 st August 2010 until 31 st July 2013 with grateful financial support provided by the Prevention and Fight against Crime Programme of the European Commission-Directorate-General Home Affairs and the Swedish National Police Board. Our aim and aspiration is that the material produced by the project will serve as a contribution towards a European approach on how to police crowds and political manifestations through effective dialogue and communication.

The Anthology 5 Introduction This anthology is part of the project “Good Practice for Dialogue and Communication as Strategic Principles for Policing Political Manifestations in Europe” (GODIAC). 1 The purpose of the GODIAC project was to contribute to the development of a European approach to policing political manifestations. The strategic objectives of the GODIAC project were: Analyse and disseminate good practices of applying research-based principles focusing on communication and dialogue as strategic principles for de-escalation and prevention of public order disturbances at political manifestations in Europe. Increase knowledge on the social identities of demonstrators and activists, their motivation, mobility and strategies. Stimulate the use of research-based knowledge in policing political manifestations. Promote evaluation of policing major events at a European level. Stimulate lessons to be learnt, disseminated and used nationally and internationally. Develop institutional co-operation and networks at a European level between practitioners, researchers and trainers. Facilitate collaboration between law enforcement agencies and research networks. GODIAC addressed the following overall research questions: How can communication and dialogue strategies contribute to preventing public order disturbances or help de-escalate tense situations in demonstrations? 1 This publication reflects the views of its authors alone. The European Commission cannot be held responsible for any use that may be made of the information contained herein. What are the motives of and the different tactics and strategies used by different kinds of protest groups? What police strategies and tactics can be seen as good examples? The aim of this researcher volume is, on the one hand, to present research produced during the course of the GODIAC project, along with the experiences of police officers in the field and of trainers who participated in the project, and on the other hand, to broaden that perspective by incorporating contributions from outside the project. The volume is divided into two parts; the first deals with issues related to the police, and the second addresses issues related to demonstrators and protesters. We hope that this volume will provide further insight into issues associated with policing at major events and shed light on the complexity of the organisations, motives, and strategies in play whenever protester groups are involved. The first part of the volume consists of a series of articles dealing with issues of dialogue and communication as a strategic tool in policing major events. First, Marianne Hilton and Christian Wessman present the Swedish special police tactics (SPT) project. Hilton was the SPT project manager, and as a police commander, Wessman was one of the practitioners to take part in the field studies conducted under the project’s aegis. The SPT project came about in the aftermath of the riots during the European Union (EU) summit in Gothenburg in 2001, and the article discusses how the project was developed, what lessons were learned, and what happened after the project’s completion. The experiences of those involved with the Swedish project in turn inspired the Swedish National Police to initiate the GODIAC project. Ola Österling, head of the dialogue unit of the Stockholm County Police, provides his perspective and experience on dialogue and communication. He does so from the perspective of a police officer on the ground. Österling was one of the key figures in
