Abstract:

 Discretion is an important and inevitable characteristic of policing that raises several discussions among academics and practitioners in the field due to the significant impact that police decisions can have on citizens’ lives and on the credibility of police institutions. This controversial attribute of police power presents challenges to the exercise of policing in democratic societies. This essay argues that procedural justice upholds police discretionary powers. It also presents real-life examples of how the exercise of police discretion in policing diverse communities may be used

Abstract:
Law enforcement is the main function of the police in maintaining public order and security. Police often face situations requiring quick and correct decisions, especially in handling minor crimes. Minor crimes require a proportional and fair law enforcement approach. However, there are problems in law enforcement for minor violations, which are often considered less than proportional. This dilemma is made even more complex by the discretionary authority possessed by the police, which allows them to resolve cases outside formal judicial channels. This research aims to identify the justice form

Abstract:
Persons with mental illness (PWMI) often report negative perceptions of police treatment following receiving criminalising and heavy-handed police responses. To appropriately control officer discretion and to harness ethical, legal, and efficient police practice when encountering vulnerable and diverse individuals, police agencies across the world issue policy documents to their officers. These documents serve as a reflection regarding how police agencies aspire to manage PWMI in the community. Using a procedural justice framework, this research measures how a large police agency in Australia

Abstract:
Police discretion has been frequently studied in relationship to arrest practices. The present study reconceptualized Shaw and McKay's (1942) social disorganization theory of the causes of delinquency as a theory proposing that police discretion is largely determined by conditions of disorganization. This theory is viewed as more advantageous than conflict theories of police activity because it allows for normative, exchange, and coercive solutions, rather than only the latter as is the case with conflict based theory. To test this theory, individual, structural, and ecological variables were

As gatekeeper to the criminal justice system the Police Service is placed in a unique position to respond to the problem of domestic violence. The police are a reactive agency that is available 24 hours every day, but the activities, or more appropriately the inactivity, of the police to effectively deal with domestic violence has been the subject of considerable scrutiny over the past 20 years or so. Previous research has tended to centre around the victims and perpetrators of domestic violence and pointed towards a police service that is generally unsympathetic and unhelpful. Whilst consider

Abstract:
Sri Lanka’s Mental Diseases Ordinance (1873) gives discretion to police officers to make decisions concerning individuals who live with mental health conditions despite lack of clinical training. Identification of officers’ attitudes towards individuals with psychological problems (IPPs) is important as these influences officers’ responses to situations involving IPPs. Using the Mental Health Attitude Survey for Police (MHASP; Clayfield, 2011), the study aimed to identify police officers’ attitudes towards IPPs, on the community responsibility towards IPPs and on IPPs living in the community.

Abstract:
Over the last few decades, a noticeable change in the approach to stabilization policy can be observed, namely a shift from discretion to rule-based policy. Rules in economic policy ensure predictability and reduce uncertainty, help policymakers avoid short-term pressures from special interest groups, act in line with long-term objectives, and facilitate communication and increase accountability. Nevertheless, we witness major (endogenous and exogenous) shocks that require quick decisions through discretionary decision-making. Economic policymakers must respond flexibly to a rapidly changing e

Local elections are often contested on the grounds of public safety, but do elected officials have any power to curb crime? Black mayors have particular interest in the issue because Black communities are victimized by high levels of crime and fragile police-community relations. Using data on elections of first-time Black mayors, I find that police forces add more Black officers, a finding that is especially true for mayors with executive authority. Officers arrest 48 fewer potential Black offenders per 10,000 Black residents for crimes where they have the ability to exercise discretion, a fin
