Summary, etc |
This thesis focuses on a study conducted in Christchurch in 2004, which examined how the New Zealand Police pro-arrest family violence policy was implementation at the local level. Pro-arrest policies were introduced in the US, UK and New Zealand from the mid-1980s onwards in the hope that they would help improve Police responses to family violence and engender consequent changes to police behaviour. However, the implementation of these changes has been fraught with difficulties and has not brought about the desired changes. The author draws on a symbolic interactionist approach and utilises Lipsky's (1980) street-level bureaucracy theory to examine a number of issues, such as pro-arrest policy at the street-level and its associated problems, and the legitimate/illegitimate exercise of discretion. This study found evidence of significant practical problems with the implementation of the pro-arrest policy, which are similar to those reported overseas.--AUTHOR'S ABSTRACT |
