“…It was clear that adversarial styles of policing compounded the alienation and disaffection of those who were exposed to them, eroding whatever commitment there was to the rule of law. As Bowling (2008) has argued, the police need to aim for 'good enough' policing, whereby they achieve a 'satisficing' balance between fairness and effectiveness. Judged against criteria of fairness, he argues that the present over-representation of some ethnic minority suspects in stop and search statistics, and the low arrest rates that result from this tactic, 'provides a clear example of where policing is not good enough' (Bowling, 2008:30).…”

“…hvordan kvalitetssikre politiets skjønnsutøvelse. Ifølge Bowling (2007) vil et slikt fokus i «stopp og sjekk»-saker vaere betimelig fordi det er «lite nyttig og realistisk å kreve et perfekt politi, isteden burde vi å etterstrebe å oppnå 'godt nok politiarbeid' , re-evaluere og stille spørsmålstegn ved begrep som rettferdighet og effektivitet» (s. 17, oversatt av forfatterne). Studier har vist at mens minoritetsdelen av befolkningen ofte urettmessig kan utsettes for enkelte typer henvendelser fra politiet, kan politiet som samfunnsinstitusjon profitere og oppnå mer legitimitet og tillit ved å ha mer kontakt av rett type med den samme delen av befolkningen (Cook, 2015).…”

“…For eksempel tenker vi at laering av erfaring også må vaere å jobbe kunnskapsbasert. Som vi allerede har nevnt, er det flere studier som har undersøkt politibetjenters intensjon med «stopp og sjekk», og funnene viser at det er nødvendig å ha en kritisk holdning til arbeidsmetodens effekt på samfunnet som helhet (Bowling, 2007;Sollund, 2006). Dersom politiledere stiller spørsmål til politiets praksis ut i fra annen kunnskap enn sin egen erfaringsbaserte, vil de også i større grad jobbe i tråd med intensjonene om kunnskapsbasert erfaringslaering.…”

“…The implication is that policing may, in the future, become something that only those able to pay for it can access, rather than it being something freely available to all. Like Bowling (2007), we are sympathetic to Walker's (2006, 2007) view that 'good' policing requires the state to play a significant role in both authorising and providing policing and security.…”
