The Police Code of Ethics: A Tool for Improving Relationships with the Population? - 2017.
100
The implementation of the police Code of Ethics of 2014 sheds light on the challenges surrounding the use of the law to regulate police forces. Firstly, beat police officers often use their discretion to limit the effectiveness of rules if they interfere with their work. Secondly, the code does not provide a clear answer to dilemmas faced by police officers, especially the tensions between official orders and human rights. Instead of improving the relationship between police officers and citizens, this code seeks to solve internal problems: it is used by police authorities to assert their power.
