It
is necessary to underline that traditionally police was considered to be not
susceptible to corruption at the large scale. In fact, police was viewed as a
reliable agency that protects the social security and stability of the life of
the entire society and provides the maintenance of the existing social order.
In such a situation, the problem of corruption became of a paramount importance
since it undermines not only the trust of the public to police but it also
leads to the ineffectiveness of work of police may decrease dramatically
resulting in the progress of the criminal underworld and the deterioration of
the existing social situation.
In fact, corruption is not a chimerical threat but a part of the real life. It is worthy of mention that the more difficult is the criminal situation and the more developed the organized crime is the higher is the risk of the spread of corruption. This means that large urban areas are particularly exposed to the risk of corruption. In this respect, it is possible to refer to the history of the spread of corruption within the New York Police Department. Basically, the NYPD was traditionally considered to be quite reliable but still the problem of corruption grew more and more serious. As a result, it is impossible to ignore this problem and it is necessary to struggle against corruption but, what is probably even more important, is the fact that it is necessary to develop effective measures to prevent corruption within the NYPD. Consequently, this paper will focus on the analysis of the concept of corruption and its essence, the history of corruption within the NYPD, especially some particularly important cases, and discuss the current situation and perspectives of the solution of the problem of corruption that will help better understand the direction in which the anti-corruption struggle should move in.
The essence of corruption and its prevention
Basically, the problem of corruption is very serious and the difficulties begin with the definition of this phenomenon and the lack of actual opportunities to prove cases of corruption. What is meat here is the fact that corruption may take place but it does not necessarily mean that cases of corruption may be legally proved and, consequently, punished or prevented.
I did not write this, but the person that did made a good point.
