[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. Several case decisions have made Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren a household name throughout the latter part of the twentieth century. One that was particularly pertinent to each and every American was Miranda v. Arizona, which ruled that anyone who is considered to be a criminal suspect must be informed of their constitutional rights prior to any legal inquiry. One of the primary purposes of this decision was to offer protection to those who did not have the means by which to obtain counsel; if it was determined the suspect could not afford to hire private counsel, a representative of the court would come to his or her defense.

Modern Day Police: Enforcers Of The Law Or Glorified Social Workers?
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. At one time police officers were well-respected, well-trained components of society whose only objective was to uphold the law. The held authority to address a given situation with the proper and appropriate discipline – verbal, physical, incarceration or otherwise – and they were supported by the whole of law enforcement administration. Modern day police, however, face an entirely different approach to the very same job, given the fact that they are openly ostracized, disrespected and held accountable by the very people they risk their lives to protect. If they are not stepping between the pettiness of feuding neighbors or breaking up the illicit activity of twelve-year-old latchkey kids, then they are playing the role of welfare sympathizers in an already-overwrought social work system. Moreover, they have become powerless in dealing with unsavory elements of criminal perpetrators because the ever-growing trend toward protecting the offender at the expense of society as a whole has become a tremendous foothold in their ability to do their jobs. In essence, contemporary police have been effectively trained in the physical nature of law enforcement and taught the fundamental principles of laws that govern a civil society, but what their job amounts to in today's society is nothing short of glorified social workers.

[ send me this paper ]
6 pages. In determining what it takes to motivate employees in the law enforcement or courthouse setting, studies have been undertaken that show that the number one most important action is effective leadership. However, effective leadership need not mean being in control. While the need for security is not only a physical but a mental reality as well, it has been found that those employees who are taught to use their own creativity are more likely to feel motivated. For those working in areas which are subject to possible dangerous elements, it is only through the knowledge and determination of the leadership and the effectiveness of that leadership to make the employee feel capable, that one can truly feel secure in knowing that the workplace environment is a safe and supportive one.

Motivational Processes in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP)
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing motivational processes and the RCMP. Motivational processes used within corporate structures and within police structures are inherently different. Modern day corporate structures use motivational techniques which are based on rewards and increasing employee satisfaction which could range from increased responsibility, benefits, salary or more direct impact on actions and results of position duties. Within policing organizations however, such as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in Canada, organizations are based on hierarchical structures with a military base. Because of this, the traditional motivation by punishment can still seen in addition to the more recent motivation by reward. Increasingly, the RCMP organization has opened its motivational processes to include many psychological components of job satisfaction which include community participation to allow the members the opportunity to work outside of the traditional structured environment and see how relationships between the RCMP and the community can positively impact law enforcement which in turn motivates the member to succeed and remain with the Force.
