Abstract

The main objective of this text is to honor David Bailey. David, who passed away in 2020, was one of the world's most respected public safety and policing researchers. This legendary figure in the field of police work has written 18 academic books and hundreds of articles and his concepts are significant for the police universe, including in the Brazilian scenario. His work was distinctive and remarkable, as when conducting studies on Public Safety, Bailey went to see the work of police officers, not only in their strategic nuances, but also with the police officers who deliver services to the population. Moved by a thought of the role of the police in protecting and promoting democratic principles, he sought to observe the differences between police behavior in various countries. David Bailey died on May 10, 2020, at the age of 87, after a fruitful and exemplary life with an academic production backed by field studies in multiple police forces, societies and governments. His two main interests were the study of strategic changes in police organizations and the comparison between international practices of these institutions.
