The Contours of Police Integrity

Klockars (criminal justice and sociology, University of Delaware) presents work on police corruption and police integrity across cultures. After an introduction to the issues surrounding police integrity, the book focuses on cultural, political, and historical conditions that influence police conduct in 14 different countries, drawing on the largest survey of police integrity ever conducted. Designed as a text for graduate and undergraduate courses in police administration and management, comparative criminal justice, and comparative policing, the text can also be used as a resource for regional policing institutes and police training academies.
