Police Ethics and Values



February 2012 | 160 pages | Learning Matters
This text provides an accessible, up to date and comprehensive introduction to police ethics and values for all those undertaking degrees and foundation degrees in policing and related subjects. The recent introduction of directives, legislation and Codes of Standards has demanded a more principled and professional approach to policing. This book therefore provides a clear understanding of police ethics and values and how these are understood in policy and applied in an operational setting. It discusses the range, importance and complexity of ethical issues faced by law enforcement practitioners and policy makers, introduces the key concepts of ethics, professionalism and policing, and relates these to key themes within policing.

Ethics are a real concern in the criminal justice system. Students need to explore this aspect within policing. This text helps them to do just that.

Excellent read.

Thought provoking for students.

A nicely written book which discusses many of the theoretical and practical problems faced by modern police officers. This would have been a useful reference book in my previous role as a police trainer and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to consider policing in the UK in the 21st Century and particularly officers themselves. In my experience, serving officers rarely consider how and why they act and react in certain ways. This book may help them examine these questions. In my opinion, it is aimed more at the practitioners, rather than academics but this should be seen as a strength. Few authors have feet in both camps, and Neyround shows that this should something to be encouraged.

This book is aimed at students taking undergraduate programmes in policing and police-related disciplines who need to have a clear and comprehensive understanding of police ethics and values, and how this is understood in policy and applied in an operational setting.

Another excellent book in the Policing Matters range which fits so well into the foundation policing degrees which we offer at Bishop Burton College. This book offers much to an area which has limited books and journals for students to refer to.

This is an excellent book which we tend to use alongside another in the same series entitles 'Equality and diversity in policing'

A good insight for new recruits with thought provoking reflective tasks. The books work out expensive if a whole series is bought, however, good for specifics.
