Study Notes
Traditional and Constitutional Monarchies
- Traditional authority is often granted to monarchs by their subjects, leading to respect and power.
- Monarchs' power has transitioned from absolute authority to largely ceremonial roles in modern constitutional monarchies.
- Absolute monarchies claim divine rights and hold significant power, seen historically in ancient Egypt and medieval England and China.
- The needs of clergy and nobility often limited the absolute power of monarchs.
- Constitutional monarchies exist today where the royal family serves a symbolic role; the actual governance lies with elected officials such as a prime minister and parliament. Examples include Denmark, Great Britain, Norway, Spain, and Sweden.
Authoritarianism and Totalitarianism
- Authoritarianism refers to political systems that restrict popular participation and repress dissent, governed by individuals or groups not elected by the populace.
- Totalitarianism embodies the characteristics of authoritarianism but enforces stricter control over all facets of citizens' lives, often employing severe punishments for dissent.
Models of Policing
- Police organization varies by the socio-cultural and historical context of different countries.
- Policing by consent emphasizes community cooperation, prevalent in democratic nations like the UK; policing by law relies on state mandate.
Command Structure of Police
- Centralized command involves a singular authority directing police forces, while decentralized command features multiple independent police organizations.
- Models categorized by the number of forces include singular (one force) and multiple (several forces), with subcategories of coordinated and uncoordinated based on jurisdictional overlap.
Comparative Study of Police Systems
- Saudi Arabia exemplifies a centralized coordinated police force with a direct line of authority from the king.
- China has a similar model with its ministry of public security overseeing national public safety.
- France represents a multiple coordinated police force, with a structured response protocol to crimes involving both patrol officers and detectives.
Problem-Solving Policing
- A proactive approach aimed at crime prevention by analyzing patterns and behaviors leading to criminal activities.
Community-Oriented Policing

Police Organizational Styles
- Traditional bureaucratic model stresses a hierarchical structure with centralized authority for generating policies.
- Military-bureaucratic model, lawful policing model, community-oriented policing, and public-private divide policing are the four key models influencing police organization and strategy.
Globalization
- Characterized by transnational flows of people, production, investment, ideas, and authority, leading to increased interconnection among states and markets.
- Globalization can pose risks to human rights by blurring boundaries and facilitating abuses while pushing for a global human rights framework.
- People empowerment is a key concept within globalization, allowing individuals to take initiative in improving business processes without needing higher management approval.
