actions are consistent with widely held beliefs of human
rights, the second section explains the problems and
examines the connection between those rights and the
police. Understanding Policing is an attempt to
integrate the professional police and human rights
viewpoints while serving as a brief introduction to each
of these genres of literature. The article attempts to lay
out the essential obligations of law enforcement in
society as well as the principles and values that ought to

police professionalism. Instead of taking a legalistic
stance, understanding policing assesses the likelihood
that police will uphold human rights in practice. This
suggests that we will surpass the standards established
by other countries.
