Abstract With very few exceptions, factual and fictionalized the portrayals of the police and law enforcement are almost always situated in urban settings. Only ‘real’ police work occurs in the cities while policing in rural and remote areas is often depicted as less critical, or in some cases non-existent. In a similar fashion, much of the current academic literature has focused on police work in urban environments. It is only in the past five years that the academic focus has turned its attention to the experiences of police officers who live and work in rural and remote areas. To date, no such studies have yet examined the work of police officers in rural and remote areas of Iceland.

  • Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe Refers To: A
    32nd SESSION CPL32(2017)06final 29 March 2017 Local democracy in Iceland Monitoring Committee Rapporteurs1: Zdenek BROZ, Czech Republic (L, ECR) Jakob WIENEN, Netherlands (L, EPP/CCE) Recommendation 402 (2017)..................................................................................................................2 Explanatory memorandum ......................................................................................................................4 Summary This report follows the second monitoring visit to Iceland since it ratified the European Charter of Local Self-Government in 1991. It shows that the country has a satisfactory level of local democracy. The report praises recent developments fostering local self-government, including the promotion of the involvement of local authorities in national decision-making and increased inter-municipal co-operation and citizen participation in local authorities. In particular, it underlines that the national and local authorities were able to deal with a major financial crisis and its economic and social consequences without undermining local self-government. Nevertheless, the rapporteurs draw the authorities’ attention to the absence of a clear division of responsibilities between central government and local authorities, the lack of direct applicability of the Charter in the domestic legal system and the fact that the capital, Reykjavik, has not been granted a special status in accordance with Recommendation 219 (2007). Lastly, local authorities still do not have adequate resources for performing all their functions. The Congress recommends that the Icelandic authorities clarify the division of responsibilities between central government and local authorities and pass legislation to give the Charter legal force in Iceland’s domestic legal system. It also urges them to provide local authorities with adequate and sufficient financial resources and grant the city of Reykjavik a special status to take account of its particular needs compared to other municipalities.
