The philosophy and implementation of democratic values in policing to provide public service and security that is unbiased, fair, and accountable to the community is essential for building a democratic society; however, such reforms in policing cannot produce democracy in governments and other state institutions. Thus, in providing technical assistance for policing reform in foreign countries, the United States might be wiser to strive for policing that is not incompatible with democracy rather than try for policing that will produce it. This involves the development of policing that is neutral on all political questions, including questions related to the pace and type of democracy that might be emerging. Further, the strategy for police reform might focus more on letting the police leaders in other countries come and observe the policing philosophies, styles, and operations of various U.S. police forces, so they might pick and choose what seems to them appropriate and practical for their own situations. This might prove to be more effective than having our experts visit foreign countries with a predetermined program of training and technical assistance. Questions and answers from workshop participants are included.
