Sommario/riassunto

Police Studies constitute an important area of academic inquiry and policing raises a large number of ethical questions, yet to date there has been a paucity of research on the subject. This significant volume provides an integrated mix of ethico-philosophical analysis combined with practitioner knowledge and experience to examine and address the large number of difficult ethical questions involved in modern-day policing. Key features: cents Outlines a distinctive philosophical theory of policing which promotes the human rights dimension of police work. cents Analyzes the phenomenon of noble cause corruption and ways to combat it. cents Examines the role of restorative justice. cents Discusses the related notions of police authority and police discretion. cents Assesses the use of coercive and deadly force. cents Provides a detailed discussion of recent issues such as privacy and confidentiality in the context of new communication and information technologies, and entrapment. Philosophical in approach and written in an accessible style, the book will be a valuable guide for all those with an interest or involvement in Police Studies, Criminology, Philo
