What issues are there in contemporary policing?
LIMITATIONS
In the UK, the HOC describe us to have a 'British Model of Policing' which describes our policing however
, there is no formal definition
There is no clarity
it is interlinked with
The office of constable
Operational Independence
Policing by consent
What needs to be worked on - specifically
The crime Control Model of Policing
Choong (1998) Argues that this model prioritises efficiency over correct enforcement.
He argues that police goals are a threat to public justice and criminal justice roles
This suggests that the police are a barrier to justice
"The station is the end, not the beginning of [criminal justice] process[es]" Chong, 1998, p.625

issues
with contemporary policing
Reiner & Newburn, 2007
argue that the contemporary world has experienced
'an optimistic project of gradulally increasing incorporation of all sections of society into a common status of citizenship'
This alludes to
globalisation
posing difficult threats to the exercise of power (policing) as there is so much scope and yet limited resources to meet the needs of the contemporary world
