Items related to Fairness and Effectiveness In Policing: The Evidence
Synopsis
Skogan (political science, Northwest University) and Frydl, director of the Committee to Review Research on Police Policy and Practices, 2000-2003, explain the results of a two-year study on how police work is organized, the expanding responsibilities of police, diversity among police employees, and the complex interactions between officers and citizens. The report overviews the development of police research and American policing, then examines issues related to the effectiveness of police activities, the impact of community, organizational, and governmental factors on the police, and police compliance with constitutional, statutory, and professional norms.

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Because police are the most visible face of government power for most citizens, they are expected to deal effectively with crime and disorder and to be impartial. Producing justice through the fair, and restrained use of their authority. The standards by which the public judges police success have become more exacting and challenging. Fairness and Effectiveness in Policing explores police work in the new century. It replaces myths with research findings and provides recommendations for updated policy and practices to guide it. The book provides answers to the most basic questions: What do police do? It reviews how police work is organized, explores the expanding responsibilities of police, examines the increasing diversity among police employees, and discusses the complex interactions between officers and citizens. It also addresses such topics as community policing, use of force, racial profiling, and evaluates the success of common police techniques, such as focusing on crime ?hot spots.? It goes on to look at the issue of legitimacy?how the public gets information about police work, and how police are viewed by different groups, and how police can gain community trust. Fairness and Effectiveness in Policing will be important to anyone concerned about police work: policy makers, administrators, educators, police supervisors and officers, journalists, and interested citizens.
