Comparative Policing : the struggle for democratization
Bok av Maria Haberfeld
How do police forces around the world move toward democratization of their operations and responses? Analyzing police forces from 12 different countries, Comparative Policing: The Struggle for Democratization assesses the stages of each country based on the author's development of a "Continuum of Democracy" scale.
Using five basic themes, this book uses the following criteria to rank and evaluate where each country falls on the continuum, clarifying how policing practices differ:
History of a democratic form of government
Level of corruption within governmental organizations and the oversight mechanisms in place
Scope of and response to civil disobedience
Organization structures of police departments
Operational responses to terrorism and organized crime
