Sažetak

We are the witnesses o fa constantly changing rôle ofthe police in society. The working plan for “community poiicing” was established in England approxímately 160 years ago within Metropolitan Police in London and it was spread oversome parts of Europe and even more over North America (U SA and Canada). B y the time this working concept was abandoned with the new concepts becoming more powerful. Today thè revival of the concept of “community poiicing” can be noticed in many countries. Despite the faci that we are not dealing here with a nerv concept, but with the revival ofthe old one, its purpose is to combat crime, riots and to prevent crime fear by proactive and decentralized measures through the intensive integration of the police officers in the society during a larger period of time in order to establish personal contacts with the population. The Croatian police hâve no expérience in thè field of “community poiicing”. Some parts ofthe Police A ct can be considered as the initial work for establishing such a concept or guidelines for community poiicing. Thus the Croatian police could be transforme d from an old model intő the police as public service, where “community poiicing” might be the adequate working concept.
