A STUDY TO IDENTIFY THE ATTRIBUTES OF POLICE STRATEGIES AND THE RELATED LEADERSHIP STYLES IN ORDER TO ADDRESS THE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES IN POLICE ORGANIZATIONS AND THE COMMUNITY

Gregory, John Christopher 01 January 2003 (has links)
This research identified and examined the attributes of police strategies and the related leadership styles in an attempt to develop a model that would benefit police organizations and the community in an effort to have a positive impact on the quality of life of all citizens in the community. It was a qualitative study that utilized literature from the law enforcement community, the business community, the athletic community, as well as the military community. Personal law enforcement and military experience was considered in order to bring an intimate view of leadership in times of peril and crisis into the text. Recollections of former leaders and the leadership styles they employed were considered when reviewing the literature for this text. The need for leaders who employ leadership styles that facilitate the effective planning and execution of police strategies in today’s police organizations is a primary issue in our communities. Leaders and leadership have almost countless definitions, but the intent of this research is to challenge senior police leaders to inspire the citizens, which includes police officers, in their community to define and recognize leadership according to the specific and unique qualities of their police organization and their community (Densten, 1999). The police strategies that are considered in this research are ineffective unless a leader with the desire to change the course of his or her police organization is willing to commit to improving the quality of life of every voiceless, nameless, and faceless citizen in his or her community. Police leaders have to exercise a style of leadership that will transform the personal and professional lives of the police officers in his or her organization. This research has identified the attributes of traditional policing and community oriented policing as well as the attributes of transactional leadership and transformational leadership in an attempt to determine the most effective manner to employ one of these strategies in order to accomplish the diverse goals of today's police organizations. This study recognizes that every police organization is unique and that there are organic variables and traits that allow certain organizations to employ certain strategies by implementing certain styles or combinations of styles while other organizations have to utilize alternative strategies and styles based on resource and community issues. This study does not attempt to merge the attributes of police strategies and leadership styles into a perfect and complete puzzle. All of the parts and pieces will not match perfectly or align properly. Effective leadership is the key to sculpting the rough edges and sides that don‘t quit seem to fit perfectly into the organization. There is no cookie cutter formula, however, police leaders must have the ability to adapt and to motivate police officers and citizens to change the quality of life in their community. This study sought to determine the attributes of police strategies and the attributes of leadership styles that best merge and align with the goals of police organizations. There needs to be a relationship between police strategies and leadership styles as well as a relationship between leaders and followers, and police officers and citizens (McKee, 2001). This study identifies the attributes and attempts to provide a skeleton model that police leaders can modify and adapt to their particular police organization and community. The cumulative findings of this study support the need for effective police leaders who can implement police strategies by employing a leadership style that inspires participation, cooperation, and goal accomplishment. This study recommends that community oriented policing strategies best support the needs, concerns, and desires of all citizens when transformational leadership attributes are employed at the senior police leadership levels and adopted by the first line police leaders. The recommendations are intended to improve the quality of leadership in police organizations as well as the quality of the relationships between the all citizens, which can facilitate improvements in the quality of life in the community.

Procedural consequences stemming from criminal procedural deficiences : a unified and scientific theory

Yin, Bo January 2011 (has links)
This thesis is intended to discover a unified and scientific theory of breaches of criminal procedure and their results. In Chapter One, I provide readers with a way of navigating the argument. In Chapter Two, England, Germany and China are the representative jurisdictions. I then try to harmonise ‘criminal procedure’ and ‘xing-shi su-song-fa’ in Chinese. In Chapter Three, a criminal procedure rule is composed of a procedural direction and the consequence of its breach. Weaknesses in procedural remedies exist in every jurisdiction. In Chapter Four, two obstacles are cleared up: the Anglo-American suspicions about universal legal theory and the antagonistic position between socialist and capitalist laws. Two scientific factors are found: three objectives of criminal procedure: substantive truth, procedural regularity and legal harmony; criminal procedural conduct as the analytical unit. In Chapter Five, civil juristic act theory cannot be mechanically transplanted. Two categorisations are found useful: disposition-influencing conduct, procedure-inducing conduct and adjudicative conduct; conduct by a person in authority and conduct by a person not in authority. In Chapter Six, there are simply proclaimed rules and nullity-backed rules. Breaches of nullity-backed rules can be either absolutely null or relatively null. The treatment of relatively null conducts is either nullification or regularisation. There are three conventional nullifications: reversal of adjudicative conduct; exclusion of disposition-influencing conduct and nullification of procedure-inducing conduct. Regularisation is divided into disposal and overlooking. If substantive aspects are examined, mitigation of sentence and ending of proceedings may be applied. Transmutation of invalid procedural conduct is a peculiar treatment. Then, I briefly integrate the subordinate procedural mechanisms in terms of institutional arrangements and structural constraints. In Chapter Seven, I explore the function of this theory in terms of theoretical guidance, legislation and legal practice, although discretion is unavoidable for deciding the final consequence of many breaches.
