- Title
Designing Police Organizations: An Interdisciplinary Framework.
- Authors
Suve, Priit
- Abstract
Organizational design carries an interdisciplinary ethos. In the example of the police, this article elaborates a framework grasping tensions between managerism and professionalism, individualization and network society as developments influencing an organization; overt and covert crimes, and strategies as elements related to the police's task environment; but also, the challenge of knowledge diversity. The framework aims to overcome possible conflicts in and between different fields and blend them in a meaningful way for becoming organizational design. This focused framework provides three essential benefits. First, for police organizations, it is a ready-made solution to exploit. Second, for scholars in management, policing, and criminology, it calls for further examination. Third, it offers a practical solution for practitioners in various organizations to adjust and advance.
