This book brings together research on police integrity on regions
worldwide. The results for each country indicate whether police
officers know the official rules, how seriously they view police
misconduct, what they think the appropriate and expected discipline
for misconduct should be, and how willing they are to report it.
Police misconduct refers to everything from corruption and use
excessive force, to perjury, falsification of evidence, and failure
to react. Police Integrity and police misconduct are topics of
great concern worldwide. Police integrity is envisioned as the
inclination to resist temptations to abuse the rights and
privileges of police occupation. Using their extensive experience
studying police integrity in the United States, the editors have
created an applicable framework for measuring police integrity in
other countries. The results of their research are brought together
in this timely volume, including contributions from both
established democracies and countries in transition, which each
present unique challenges for improving police integrity. Each
chapter follows the same format and contains a theoretical analysis
of the relevant legal, historical, political, social, and economic
conditions in the country, followed by the analyses of empirical
results and policy recommendations. In the last chapter, editors
Kutnjak Ivkovic and Haberfeld take a comparative look across the
countries by engaging in the in-depth comparative analysis. This
work will be of interest to researchers and policy-makers studying
policing both in the United States and internationally, presenting
a theoretical framework that can be applied to other regions for
further research.
