This article examines the different ways that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) police liaison officers in three states of Australia conceptualized and problematized the public visibility of LGBTI police liaison services. In a climate where LGBTI police liaison services are a prominent model for building relationships between police and LGBTI people, this article considers, through interview data with LGBTI police liaison officers, these officers’ perceptions of the role that the visibility of these programs played in their success. Specifically, it explores the tensions and difficulties for officers and LGBTI communities resulting from the general invisibility of liaison officers themselves (and, by extension, these programs), as well as the problems that increased visibility of these programs might bring to officers, to LGBTI communities, and to policing work itself. Although enhancing the visibility of liaison services may be an important goal, this research suggests that careful consideration is required regarding how this visibility is produced and maintained, particularly given the concerns that officers reported about the potential risks posed by adopting new forms of visibility, including the risk of hypervisibility. This article questions the conventional view that increased visibility is unproblematic and is the key to the success of such programs.

“在阳光下,你会被其他白痴袭击”:在澳大利亚三个州的 LGBTI 警察联络计划中应对 (In) 可见性和 Hypervisibility 的紧张局势

本文研究了澳大利亚三个州的女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别和双性人 (LGBTI) 警察联络官对 LGBTI 警察联络服务的公众知名度进行概念化和问题化的不同方式。在 LGBTI 警察联络服务是在警察与 LGBTI 之间建立关系的重要模式的情况下,本文通过对 LGBTI 警察联络官的访谈数据考虑了这些官员对这些项目的可见性在他们的工作中发挥的作用的看法。成功。具体而言,它探讨了由于联络官本身(以及这些项目)的普遍隐身而给警官和 LGBTI 社区带来的紧张和困难,以及提高这些项目的可见度可能给警官带来的问题,LGBTI 社区,以及警务工作本身。虽然提高联络服务的可见度可能是一个重要目标,但这项研究表明,需要仔细考虑如何产生和维护这种可见度,特别是考虑到官员报告了采用新形式的可见度带来的潜在风险的担忧,包括超可视性的风险。本文质疑传统观点,即提高可见度是没有问题的,并且是此类计划成功的关键。特别是考虑到官员报告了采用新形式的可见性所带来的潜在风险的担忧,包括超可见性的风险。本文质疑传统观点,即提高可见度是没有问题的,并且是此类计划成功的关键。特别是考虑到官员报告了采用新形式的可见性所带来的潜在风险的担忧,包括超可见性的风险。本文质疑传统观点,即提高可见度是没有问题的,并且是此类计划成功的关键。
