Procedural Conflict and Conflict Resolution: a Cross-National Study of Police Officers from New Zealand and South Australia
Procedural conflict and conflict resolution: a cross-national study of police officers from New Zealand and South Australia Ross Hendy Churchill College University of Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2018 ii iii Declaration Tis dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the preface and specifed in the text. It is not the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or di- ploma or other qualifcation at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submit- ted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualifcation at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. iv v Abstract Tis research takes a cross-national approach to explore how police officers attempt confict resolution in their day-to-day activities. Using comparisons of the behaviour of routinely armed officers from South Australia and routinely unarmed officers from New Zealand, this thesis chronicles a research journey which culminates with a new theoretical framework to explain police-citizen encounters. Te research took a grounded theory approach and employed a mixed methods design. Quantitative data revealed that officers from South Australia used verbal and physical control behaviours more frequently and for a higher proportion of time during encounters than dur- ing the encounters observed in New Zealand. Tere were no clear explanations for the differences, although there were variations in law and the profle of event-types between the research sites.

Australian Law Enforcement
Australian Law Enforcement In Australia, no one is above the law and all are subject to the law. This is called the rule of law. For the rule of law to be effective, it requires the law of the land to be known and followed by all citizens. An important component of maintaining Australia’s justice system is law enforcement, which ensures that everyone follows the law. Federal, state, and territory law enforcement services protect the community by preserving the peace, upholding the law, develop and run programs in crime prevention, aid in emergencies, and manage emergency incidents. Law enforcement agencies are subject and accountable to the law and have a responsibility to enforce legislation, which is passed through the different levels of governance in Australian society. Their origins began with the arrival of convicts on the First Fleet from England, back in 1788. And whilst the new settlement began as a penal colony, the evolution of the colony into a free society began developing as early as two weeks, when legal processes were put into effect to resolve any disputes and grievances that had arisen amongst the new inhabitants, including convicts. Australia's First Cops Were All Criminals Today, there are three main levels of law enforcement available in Australia which serves to protect citizens. They are: Federal State/Territory Local In addition to these levels, there are several other agencies that have powers to enforce Australian law in specific areas. Some examples include: o Australian Border Force - customs and immigration o Australian Defence Force – military police o Australian Securities and Intelligence Organisation – national security Each level has its own requirements and expectations, which all citizens in society are expected to know and follow.

Instead, a diversity of agencies, laws, practices and ethical codes are required to effectively tackle misconduct and promote integrity (Brown, 2005). The existing mechanisms available in Tasmania to respond to misconduct and promote integrity include: Parliament; The Ombudsman; The State Service Commissioner; The Auditor-General; The Director of Public Prosecutions; Tasmania Police; Commissions of Inquiry; and Legislation – including the Freedom of Information Act 1991, the Public Interest Disclosures Act 2002, and relevant provisions of the State Service Act 2000 and the Local Government Act 1993. Mechanisms such as codes of conduct help to promote integrity, while mechanisms such as freedom of information legislation and the oversight provided by parliamentary committees and the Auditor-General promote transparency.
