Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the underlying causes and deterrent control mechanisms of police misconduct in the United States. Outcomes of causes and control mechanisms constitute the basis for an applicable model specifically for the Turkish National Police (TNP) and possibly for all otherworld police organizations. This book attempts to find answers to the following questions: Why do some police behaviors deviate? What are the main determinants of police misconduct? Is police misconduct a result of sociological behavior and subcultural development within police organizations or a psychological behavior as an outcome of officers personal traits? What are the control mechanisms for police misconduct? What are the best deterrence mechanisms for police misconduct? Should police be controlled by internal affairs departments or should an external control be established? What are their strengths and weaknesses? Do they deter effectively or not? Is there a control mechanism that deters better than others and improves democratic policing initiatives of police agencies? This book might help politicians, police and other public administrators for better governance of police agencies.
