The Guardian 21/10/2019 News Who’s In? Restricting the Community to Enhance Cop in the Dominican Republic Twenty years into the spread of community-oriented policing (COP) in Latin America, initial assumptions that it would lead to successful transformation of policing in the region are being confounded by continuing insecurity and police violence. Given the disconnect between COP objectives and its implementations, there is a need to reassess the assumption that COP is necessarily a democratic form of policing. This article examines the development of COP in the Dominican Republic with a focus on citizenship policies. It underlines that COP projects have vastly different impacts on individual rights. The inherent community membership boundaries citizenship policies set can condition which groups are to benefit from COP initiatives and which ones are deemed vectors of insecurity. This study is primarily based on a qualitative study including interviews, document analysis, and observation. It finds that Dominican Republic Police (DNP) reforms have improved service provision directed at select groups, which enjoy the benefits of more democratic policing. However, these reforms have also led to an increase in police persecution of Haitian minorities. I demonstrate this population is a target for harder policing because of new citizenship legislation that categorised Haitian descent minorities as outsiders to the community. This adds a distinctively undemocratic flavour to efforts to transform public safety provision in the country. Policing and Society - Registration at source 21/10/2019 Research article Direct and Indirect Effects of Crime-Related Media Consumption on Public Confidence in the Police This study explores the potential links between crime-related media consumption and confidence in the police based on instrumental and expressive models. Drawing on data from a large sample of South Koreans, direct and indirect effects of crime-related media consumption on perceptions of the police are examined using regression-based multiple mediation analysis. Results showed that although there is no direct effect of media consumption on confidence in the police, crime-related media consumption is significantly and negatively associated with public confidence in the police via perceived incivilities and fear of crime. This study suggests that the police should make a constant effort to develop strategies to enhance communication with the public. International Journal of Police Science & Management 21/10/2019 Research article Police, Personality and the Ability to Deceive Effectiveness as an undercover operative or human source (informant) handler relies on the believability of police in fictious roles, yet the use of deception by law enforcement in covert fields of policing and criminal interviews remains relatively underexplored in the literature. Moreover, selection processes for these critical police roles do not currently include a test of deception ability. This study investigates the lie production and truth production ability of 50 Australian police officers-in-training by comparing their results on a game of deception with their personality traits as tested by the HEXACO-PI-R-100 item version, the Short-D3 and the MSCEIT. Results indicate that sex, age, dark triad traits and emotional intelligence have no relationship with either truth or lie production. HEXACO results indicate low social self-esteem was related to high lie production ability. Further research is needed to explore extraversion, social skills, and confidence as they relate to the credibility of a ‘storyteller’.
