Abstract

A theoretical and 'historical' overview of the potential for friction between police officers and social workers as they have to work together on a daily basis. Where the root causes of that tension may be located. Indications that in recent years there is a coming together of the police and social workers and a growing degree of accord in their daily practice. Speculation as to why this should be, is followed by a consideration of some implications for future social work practice.
