Jan-Philipp Küppers: Police and Citizen Participation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book addresses the increasing significance of participation processes for the police and how to effectively design them. An integrated security structure will involve stakeholder groups and citizens in police hazard and risk assessment, shaping their sense of security. It provides a guiding approach for incorporating practical participation processes into police planning and projects, highlighting areas such as conflict resolution discussions before protests, opinion formation through information exchange, and "round tables" with independent citizen and police commissioners.

In uncertain times marked by social change, participation processes can help improve relationships between the police and civil society and build mutual trust. While citizen participation cannot replace sovereign action, it can enhance it with everyday knowledge. In these challenging times, there is no better way to collaboratively shape security and address issues.

The Content

• Practical assistance and better understanding of participation processes for police work
• Advantages of citizen participation at a glance
• Three practical application areas (cooperation discussions in protest situations, independent citizen and police commissioners, and municipal security and prevention work)
