The forgotten path to police reform in the United States
From time to time, the Editors will invite senior members of the profession to write a personal essay on one of the core recurring issues in policing. In this issue of Policing and Society, one of
Human rights in policing
The paper examines the success that the international community has had in creating human rights observing police in the two decades since the end of the Cold War. It argues that at the international level awareness of human rights as a desirable goal has expanded enormously. Furthermore, the beginnings of international institutions of policing and justice have been created, constituting, arguably, the beginnings of world government. Progress at …
Et tu brute
Police agencies are often criticized for their practices and management. But compared to what? This essay argues that, compared with universities, where so many of their critics work, police score better in practice and management, or at least, they are no worse
The Morphing of Peacekeeping
This article examines proposals for delegating internal security – policing – in peacekeeping missions to non-state institutions. It first outlines the putative benefits in doing so. It then examines the difficulties in implementing such a strategy – problems of choosing, monitoring and regulating non-state providers. The article argues that while adopting this strategy may, or may not, provide short-term benefits in terms of public safety, it re…
The police in war
The paper addresses the dilemma of developing appropriate policing methods for effective intervention in countries where the objective is to create humane, sustainable governance adhering to the rule-of-law but where conflict is still continuing, often directed at members of the international community themselves. In both bilateral and multilateral international interventions there is confusion about what local police can contribute. The author a…
Police reform
This paper examines nine innovations in American policing since the report of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and the Administration of Justice (1967) - community-oriented policing, problem-oriented policing, signs-of-crime policing, hot-spots policing, mandatory arrest for spouse assault, enhancement of internal discipline, external oversight, COMPSTAT, and increased diversity of personnel. These innovations occurred from the top-d…

Law Enforcement and the Rule of Law
This essay assesses whether a strong evidence‐based argument can be made to support the proposition that when police violate the rule‐of‐law they do more harm than good with respect to their collective, as well as personal, interests. The assessment is undertaken to counter the common presumption among police officers that circumstances often justify cutting legal corners in the interests of public safety. The essay first examines what research s…
Policing Hate
Violence arising out of social diversity, in particular race, ethnicity, religion, and culture, is the too common lot of humankind. This paper discusses what the police can do to mitigate the cruelty that hatred generates. It argues that police cannot reduce hatred directly, but can significantly contribute to creating an environment that lessens the likelihood that hatred will result in interpersonal violence. The police do this by acting in way…

Police for the Future
The Future of Policing
This essay examines the restructuring of policing currently taking place in developed democratic societies. It argues that restructuring is occurring under private as well as government auspices and will have profound effects on public safety, equity, human rights, and accountability. These effects are discussed, along with the trade-offs they represent for public policy. The driving forces behind restructuring are fear of crime, the inability of…
A foreign policy for democratic policing
Police institutions fundamentally affect the character of political development. Using comparative and historical materials, this paper analyzes what developed democratic countries can reasonably hope to achieve by way of reforming foreign police institutions so as to encourage and support democratic political development. After reviewing the sorts of world experience that contains relevant lessons, the paper discusses foreign police policies, re…
Police For The Future
Police for the Future analyses what the police are accomplishing in modern democratic countries and whether changes are needed. It argues that the police are failing to provide the protection against crime that the public so desperately wants. It assesses the impediments to effective crime prevention, describes the most promising reforms being tried by police, and analyses the choices modern societies have with respect to creating truly effective…
The Challenge of Community Policing
"Steinhoff's "Pursuing the Japanese Police
Patricia Steinhoff (1993) reviewed five books in her review essay "Pursuing the Japanese Police" but singled out my Forces of Order (Bayley 1991) for extended commentary because it was a "classic" that epitomized the "benign," "friendly," and "answers-for-America" (p. 830) school of writing about the Japanese police. Her review of my work, as well as the others, was insightful, knowledgeable, well argued, and fair. Some of her comments were stron…

Comparative Organization of the Police in English-Speaking Countries
In order to describe adequately the national organization of police, it is necessary to distinguish the number of autonomous forces, the coordination of jurisdictions among them, and the territorial and functional distribution of commands within them. Among the five English-speaking countries of Australia, Canada, Great Britain, India, and the United States, the number as well as the coordination of forces varies sharply. As a result, differences…

The Management of Violence by Police Patrol Officers
This study examines the dynamics of potentially violent encounters between police and public. It is based on systematic observation of about 350 eight‐hour tours of duty by patrol officers in three precincts of New York City during the summer of 1986. It compares the tactics and resulting outcomes found in encounters handled, respectively, by patrol officers believed by their peers to be especially skilled at minimizing violence and a cross secti…
Theme and Variation in Community Policing
Community policing appears to be increasingly popular around the globe. Recent research in the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia indicates that community policing is a coherent concept grounded on the notion that, together, police and public are more effective and more humane coproducers of safety and public order than are the police alone. Programmatic elements constituting community policing include community-based crime prevention, re…

The Effects of Corruption in a Developing Nation
STUDIES of politics and administration in the developing nations, whether about Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, or South and Southeast Asia, almost invariably comment upon the prevalence of corruption on the part of both politicians and civil servants. Standards of public morality, we are told, are deplorably low. Local observers within these countries confirm this impression. Where the press is free, governmental corruption becomes a sto…

The Police and Political Change in Comparative Perspective
The subject of the police is a neglected issue among political scientists. The police are rarely viewed from perspectives natural to political science, nor are they studied comparativly among countries. The few studies that have been done are written largely from the point of view of public administration; they tend to be wholly descriptive and to deal largely with matters of formal organization and management. The neglect of the police is not un…

Stratagems and Spoils
F.G. Bailey's classic political-anthropology text is reissued here with a Postscript that comments critically on the book's scope, its reception, and its uses. First published in 1969, Stratagems and Spoils captured the imagination of scholars and students with a revealing examination of principles of political competition that operate alike in ?exotic? and ?developed? societies. In Bailey's analysis, Swat Pathan chiefs, cosa nostra gangsters, Ge…

Public Protest and the Political Process in India
THE PURPOSE OF THIS ARTICLE is to explore the role played by public protest in contemporary Indian politics. It should be clearly understood that no attempt is made to provide a characterization of the nature of the Indian political system. The object is to explore only one particular feature of Indian political life. India is the world's largest democracy. Its record in the defense of political freedom and in the translation of democratic theory…

The Pedagogy of Democracy
Throughout the history of Indian politics in the 20th Century runs a curious and disturbing thread. Both before and after the achievement of independence in 1947, large segments of the Indian populace felt that the institutional means of redress for grievances, frustrations and wrongs-actual or fancied-were inadequate. Since the British withdrawal a fuller panoply of democratic procedures for influencing government has been introduced, but a basi…

The Indian Experience with Preventive Detention
O NE OF THE MOST puzzling questions confronting the statesmen of the newly developing nations is: to what extent may a government arrogate to itself in the name of democratic tutelage the power to regulate the rules of political interaction without, by this very action, jeopardizing the long-run development of democracy? If rules and guidelines are left inchoate, it will be difficult to mold the behavior of individuals and political groups to the…

The Rise of Conservative Criticism in India
A new mood of criticism is abroad in modern India. The mood can be characterized as one of dismayed re-evaluation of the entire direction of development efforts since Independence. Its character was presaged by the withdrawal from politics of J. P. Narayan as long ago as 1953, but it has only been in the last two years that the mood has begun to produce tangible political effects as well as to liven markedly public debate. To be sure, the efforts…

occurring among the younger generation connected with what are perceived to be fundamental values. Their anxiety is heightened by the haunting example of the United States.
