One such method, sometimes called textual interpretation, is hermeneutics. We apply this method to an essay written in the late 1930s about the increasingly technological nature of social organizations under the title The failure of technology: Perfection without purpose. Our intent, by way of studying this important essay, is to interpret what it has to say about the nature of organizations ‐ in this case, police organizations ‐ and the social problems these organizations are created to address. We first discuss the hermeneutic tradition in general and its application to the social sciences in particular. We then apply this approach to knowing to the failure of technology with an eye to the essay's implications for the increasing technical nature of police organizations. Finally, we discuss how police organizations might begin to respond to this increase in technics....","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"46 1","pages":"93-115"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76846666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to the likely military reform any substantial reform of the law‐enforcement currently lacks the commitment from the country's political establishment. The structure of the Ministry of the Interior's forces, its ranking system and the ideology of policing still largely reflect the old Soviet values. Therefore, they cannot be productive in the rapidly changing conditions of the modern Russia. New types of crime and the increasing public fears are commonly used to justify the more repressive militia's tactics, the anonymity of its officers’ actions, their little concern on the violation of the individual rights and the diminishing role for the public control over the law‐enforcement. The only changes within the militia's priorities are caused by the re‐distribution of the power, with even a bigger emphasis on the political elites’ personal security. Due to the collapse of the state fin...","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"12 1","pages":"117-124"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74753559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even less has been written on the topic of Canadian public order policing. This article seeks to redress this by initially locating policing development in Canada within various ‘models’ of policing. It then focuses on public order policing change through major contemporary concerns, namely the nature and extent of provincial ‘contracting out’ of policing arrangements; current First Nations land‐claims and consequent disputes situated within a wider context of self‐governance and independent policing for Aboriginal peoples. Finally, it raises the problematic of a more legitimate, consensual and community‐based policing framework in a changing, increasingly fragmented and multi‐cultural society.

The immediate recipients of this information management, the news media, recognise the police as a valuable and constant source of raw materials for news message. Seeking to question the myth of “independent” media wherein “objective” journalism flourishes, and focusing on a particular police authority, this paper examines: firstly, the contextual environments of crime news gathering, why police information on crime is so heavily included in the media; secondly, evidence of police influence on the numbers and contents of messages contained in the media; thirdly, the attitudes of journalists to news nformation derived from police press offices; and concludes finally, that the police/press interface will continue and flourish, mitigating against objective journalism, whence public perceptions of crime and policing may be largely incomplete or inaccurate.","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"14 1","pages":"77-91"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77076099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through several Brazilian case examples we explore a possible symbiosis between formal police systems and informal death squads, particularly death squads’ origins in, and connections to, the state and the criminal justice system. The thesis on devolution proposes that death squads are a product of a consequent ‐ if not fully intended ‐ process of state deconstruction, where part of the formal control system splits off, debureaucratizes, and increasingly carries out violence clandestinely and extralegally. Four sources of devolution are found: (a) in formal organization ‐ particularly in the bureaucratic centralization, specialization, and competition associated with a war model of policing; (b) an outgrowth of state‐related illegalities ‐ where devolution spawns further devolution into decentralization and loss of state control; which, in turn,...","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"207 1","pages":"207-234"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73743095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that the nature of policing and enforcement is shown by such circumstances because it is no longer obscured by routine government processes. State police action is based on legitimised coercion predicated on an ability to translate power into authority. The brutality and state fragmentation frequently accompanying LIC do not preclude this but, in general, low status and inadequate training mean the police cannot operate in the absence of a recognised national regime. In addition, factors such as LIC and a fragile infrastructure have led areas to disengage from the political centre, mobilise local resources, and establish their own forms of policing. The police thus become peripheral as security is privatised. In spite of this, police systems are robust and survive LIC.","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"55 1","pages":"291-308"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88311031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we report on an exploratory study that monitors the experiences of 398 burglary victims in Poland, and compare the findings with those from England. While Polish victims perceived the police as having changed in a number of ways, and were especially positive about the improved ‘victim‐proneness’ of the police, they were generally far more critical of the police than were their English counterparts. This to some extent reflects differences in police procedures and to this extent is amienable to change, but our tentative conclusion is that criticism of the police is more a reflection of the rising crime rate and public feelings that if crime is out of control then the police are to blame. If our view is correct then it would appear that public evaluation of the police will be unlikel...","PeriodicalId":47763,"journal":{"name":"Policing & Society","volume":"26 1","pages":"235-252"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"1997-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90938453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
