Summary
Police are society’s last resort. We grant them broad authority to force solutions on urgent problems when less coercive tactics have failed. We always hope they will be able to resolve those problems peacefully; the whole point of concentrating the authority to use force in a single institution is to professionalize it – to ensure that it will be used less intensively and more responsibly than it otherwise would be (Bittner, 1990: 257ff.). But even when police successfully resolve an emergency without resorting to overt coercion, the covert threat of doing so if “voluntary” compliance fails always lies in the background.
