Science for Police or Police Science: The Complementary Aspects of Police Science

Key Points

Police science and science for police are integral to effective policing, emphasizing evidence-based practices.
The research discusses how statistical content supports police activities and justifies their public service role.
Clarifying the scientific demarcation can enhance understanding and application of police sciences in practice.
This exploration aims to bridge existing divisions within the field, promoting a unified approach to police science.

Abstract

The study aims to elucidateon what constitutes science for police and police science. Although it is a recurring theme in academic works, there is a division within these current police sciences. Its purpose is to reclaim principles that support and underpin police activity, whether through statistical content and evidence that justify police work or the activity itself, which deserves special attention as a public service to citizens. This involves discussing what science, police, and scientific demarcation of this emerging science mean, ultimately seeking to clarify, albeit briefly, the differences and similarities between the two aspects mentioned above.Keywords: Police Sciences.
