Legal regulation of the police: international aspects
Regulación legal de la policía: aspectos internacionales
Abstract
Based on the analysis of theoretical developments, provisions of current legislation, generalizations of police practice and through the scientific method and philosophical refelexion, the article reveals the essence of the legal regulation of the police at the international level. The experience of democracies developed in the field of legal regulation of police activities has been studied to improve the execution of law enforcement functions by the Ukrainian National Police. To harmonize national legislation in the field of management in police forces and units with international standards, proposals were made to improve the legal regulation of the activities of the Ukrainian National Police. The common characteristics of police structures in the countries of the Roman-Germanic legal family have been revealed. In conclusion, it is based on the desirability of adopting the Polish experience of structuring and legal regulation of the police forces, without giving them paramilitary features. It is argued about the advisability of defining in the Regulations of the National Police the main tasks related to the provision
of police services.
