Measuring police integrity across the worldstudies from established democracies and countries in transition /[electronic resource] :edited by Sanja Kutnjak Ivkovic, M. R. Haberfeld. - New York, NY :Springer New York :2015. - xix, 376 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Preface -- Studying Police Integrity -- Police Integity in Armenia -- Police Integrity in Australia -- Police Integrity in Croatia -- Police Integrity in Estonia -- Police Integrity in Russia -- Police Integrity in Slovenia -- Police Integrity in South Africa -- Police Integrity in South Korea -- Police Integrity in Thailand -- Police Integrity in the United States -- A Comparative Perspective on Police Integrity -- Index.

This book brings together research on police integrity on regions worldwide. The results for each country indicate whether police officers know the official rules, how seriously they view police misconduct, what they think the appropriate and expected discipline for misconduct should be, and how willing they are to report it. Police misconduct refers to everything from corruption and use excessive force, to perjury, falsification of evidence, and failure to react. Police Integrity and police misconduct are topics of great concern worldwide. Police integrity is envisioned as the inclination to resist temptations to abuse the rights and privileges of police occupation. Using their extensive experience studying police integrity in the United States, the editors have created an applicable framework for measuring police integrity in other countries. The results of their research are brought together in this timely volume, including contributions from both established democracies and countries in transition, which each present unique challenges for improving police integrity. Each chapter follows the same format and contains a theoretical analysis of the relevant legal, historical, political, social, and economic conditions in the country, followed by the analyses of empirical results and policy recommendations. In the last chapter, editors Kutnjak Ivkovic and Haberfeld take a comparative look across the countries by engaging in the in-depth comparative analysis. This work will be of interest to researchers and policy-makers studying policing both in the United States and internationally, presenting a theoretical framework that can be applied to other regions for further research.
