Professional and Community Oriented Policing: the Mayberry Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new descriptive metaphor of two policing strategies, Professional Policing and CommunityOriented Policing (COP), is created in this paper. This is done by examining the individual policing styles of the two officers of the Mayberry, NC Sheriff’s Department. Mayberry is a fictional town popularized by the Andy Griffith Show. Deputy Fife exemplifies the Professional Policing model, while Sheriff Taylor is an ideal representative of the COP strategy. These two ideal images of policing are then discussed as a pedagogical tool.
