Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Turkey's well documented endemic problems of torture and its notoriously violent policing culture ought to be a thing of the past. Motivated to meet conditions attached to its prospective European Union accession, within the past five years Turkey has made important changes in law and in detention regulations, providing better safeguards for those held in places of detention. Over that period there was a recorded decrease in allegations of torture or ill-treatment of detainees held in the anti-terror departments of police stations. There are, however, signs of continuing problems of police violence, and a reported rise in overall complaints of torture and police violence since the beginning of 2007. At the core of the persistence of these phenomena is the culture of impunity. Historically, law enforcement officials were rarely if ever held to account, and still less often in a manner that reflected the gravity of the violations committed. Today, despite increased legal safeguards, law enforcement officers who flout them can still enjoy effective impunity when they are alleged to have abused or even unlawfully killed victims"--P. 1.

Book excerpt: "Offering guidelines and strategies for law enforcement on how to implement human rights policing in practice, this book relies on ethnographic research conducted with various police departments to apply human rights to policing. The book helps the reader (1) understand human rights and its history as well as the history of policing, (2) analyze the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, (3) look at the relationship between the use of power and human rights, (4) learn about the social construction of deviance, including the creation of folk devils and moral panics, (5) discover the meaning of human agency and how to use it in police work, (6) uncover the structural causes of crime, (7) place crime within the context of culture, and (8) consider critiques of the criminal justice system, including the issue of police use of force. The book includes numerous passages written by police officers discussing human rights within the context of their experience. This book sets the standard for new models of law enforcement as the profession pushes toward a future that demands change. Training in human rights policing helps law enforcement safely and humanely address the many challenges they face while providing service to communities. As US society questions an era of mass incarceration, an inhumane prison-industrial complex, police abuse of power, human rights violations, and unnecessary arrests of millions of people for minor offenses, the process of change begins with altering police behavior. This book helps make this change possible. This groundbreaking book will appeal to professionals at all levels of law enforcement. It will also be useful in programs offering degrees and/or certificates to students of criminal justice, including potential or current police officers and other criminal justice professionals who can use the lessons developed throughout the book to apply human rights to everyday policing situations"--

Those studies have been carried out amongst the rank-and-file of the uniform branch in Lithuania and Russia which were commissioned by the Soros Open Society Foundation.
