本文使用最近对英格兰和威尔士首席警官的采访数据来评估首席警官如何受到监督和给予政治指导与警察合法性之间的联系。研究发现,始于2011年的治理变革,尤其是警察和犯罪专员的选举,导致首席官员感到更加焦虑,改革降低了他们的操作独立性。这可能导致首席官员无法抵制侵犯公民自由的要求,无法优先考虑有权势的人而不是边缘化的人的需求,也无法挑战可能无效或忽视许多人优先考虑的政策。这危及警察的有效领导和合法性。建议供决策者、从业人员和研究人员考虑,以加强警察治理、领导和合法性。报告认为,研究结果对其他国家和部门的治理、领导和合法性具有启示意义。
This article uses data from recent interviews with chief police officers in England and Wales to assess the connections between how chief police officers are overseen and given political direction and police legitimacy. The research found that governance changes started in 2011, particularly the election of police and crime commissioners, led to chief officers feeling more anxious, and the reforms reduced their operational independence. This may result in chief officers being less able to resist demands to encroach on civil liberties, prioritize the needs of the powerful over the marginalized, or to challenge policies that are likely to be ineffective or which neglect many peoples’ priorities. This endangers effective police leadership and legitimacy. Suggestions are made for consideration by policy makers, practitioners, and researchers to enhance police governance, leadership, and legitimacy. It is contended that the findings have implications for governance, leadership, and legitimacy in other countries and sectors.
