Police reform in countries in transition from state socialism
toward more democratic forms of governance has risen to prominence
in recent years. Reforming policing systems that served primarily
to protect the party-states from their opponents into systems that
serve and protect civic society has come to be seen as an essential
prerequisite and concomitant of the democratization process in
transitional countries. This book describes what has happened to
the policing systems in fourteen countries in central and eastern
Europe; what reforms in ideology, organization, policies and
practices have been undertaken; what has changed in the way
policing is accomplished; and an assessment of whether the policing
system has moved closer toward democratic policing. As such, it
provides a comparative overview of what has been achieved since
1989.
