How can we enhance police integrity? After surveying more than 3,000 police officers on how they would respond, the authors went on to study three police agencies which scored highly. The authors conclude that effective administration focuses on organizational rulemaking; detecting, investigating and disciplining rule violations; circumscribing the "code of silence" that prohibits police from reporting the misconduct of their colleagues; and understanding the influence of public expectations and agency history.

This book provides an examination of noble cause, how it emerges as a fundamental principle of police ethics and how it can provide the basis for corruption. The noble cause — a commitment to "doing something about bad people" — is a central "ends-based" police ethic that can be corrupted when officers violate the law on behalf of personally held moral values. This book is about the power that police use to do their work and how it can corrupt police at the individual and organizational levels. It provides students of policing with a realistic understanding of the kinds of problems they will confront in the practice of police work.

This is a collection of essays that address the task of strengthening respect for human dignity in both the attitudes and behavior of police officers. The book's guiding theme is that integrity in police work is essential to viable and effective law enforcement. Central to the issue is how to oversee and control the behavior and actions of police, how to eliminate misuse of authority and excessive force against citizens. The book describes positive and effective steps to begin to change the culture of policing through carefully constructed, appropriate training and individual officer development.

This work provides an innovative new look at police ethics, including results from an updated version of the classic Police Integrity Questionnaire, including new social and technological advances. It aims to push the study of police research further, expanding on and testing police integrity theory and methodology, the relationship between community and integrity, and the influence of multiculturalism and globalization on policing and community attitudes. This work brings together experienced scholars who have used the police integrity theory and the accompanying methodology to measure police integrity in eleven countries, and provide advance and sophisticated explorations of the topic. Organized into three thematic sections, it explores the testing methodology for international comparisons, insights into police-community relations, and explores police subcultures. This innovative book will be of interest to researchers in criminology & criminal justice, particularly with an interest in policing, as well as related fields such as sociology, public policy, and comparative law.

Dexter heeded Abraham Lincoln's call by joining Company K in Elmira, New York on April 26, 1861. After his two years were up, he enjoyed a distinguished career as a lawyer. His journal and letters, which are carried on until late 1864, provide a keen view of the war, capturing the emotions of the men in the field and the camaraderie of Company K. The saga of Company K is similar to other divisions, regiments and companies that served in the 1860s. It is filled with heartbreak, tragedy, and humor.
