A revised edition of this practical introduction to ethics in policing for police officers and students in police studies programs.
'Police Ethics' is a practical introduction to ethical issues affecting police officers of all ranks.
The authors explore the stark, sometimes shocking reality of real-life policing situations, using them as the basis for detailed analysis of key ethical issues. These situations are drawn from Australia, USA, the UK, Asia and South Africa and range from everyday policing incidents to public events which attracted widespread media attention.
Fully updated with revised case studies, this second edition offers discussion and analysis of current ethical issues including zero tolerance policing, community-based policing, private policing, police and central, state or local government, the internationalisation of policing, specialist roles such as peacekeeping and civil rights in relation to terrorism laws.
'Police Ethics' is essential reading for all police officers, recruits, students and anyone interested in police work.
