Police Subculture

Nhan, Johnny. “Police Culture.” The Encyclopedia of Criminology and Criminal Justice, by Jay S. Albanese, 1st ed., Wiley, 2014.
Police culture is a set of values that shape how police officers perceive their working environment and act within it. This worldview is shaped by real and perceived dangers associated with police work and characterized by strong group introversion and cynicism toward non-police individuals
Waddington, P., A. J. “Police Culture.”Dictionary of Policing, edited by Tim Newburn and Peter Neyroud, 1st ed., Willan Publishing, 2008.
Police culture (or subculture) refers to the mix of informal prejudices, values, attitudes and working practices commonly found among the lower ranks of the police that influences the exercise of discretion. It also refers to the police’s solidarity, which may tolerate corruption and resist reform.

What is the best management style for the police? Police Mission discusses the values and norms inherent in the American police mission, and examines how police respond to challenges that arise while attempting to uphold this mission. It reveals that the way officers are being trained in ethics and human relations are not effective as they could be, and argues that policing has to move towards a greater emphasis on human values, moral sensitivity, and discerning judgment. A large number of themes ranging from personnel management, occupational culture, and innovative experiments in US policing techniques are examined. Several organizational theories as well as examples of international policing efforts from England to Japan are also analyzed. An important contribution to police literature, this book will be a valuable aid to students of criminology as well as practitioners and researchers of police science.
