An analysis of the various challenges faced by police operating in
different kinds of democracies. Through a cross-cultural comparison
of the various systems, the work highlights the universal
observation that police are an anomaly in a democracy. It examines
how various influences - for example, large-scale social violence,
a zeal for crime fighting, or vulnerability to temptation - often
render the police incapable of behaving in a democratic manner.
Chapters explore the experiences of police in emerging democracies
(Estonia, Hungary, Macedonia, Poland, the Russian Federation and
Slovenia), established democracies (Austria, the UK, the
Netherlands and Switzerland), and mixed democracies (South Africa).
The book analyzes the similarities and differences of the policing
challenges democratic societies face as well as the responses and
remedies adopted by police in various countries at different levels
of democratic achievement.
