This qualitative study by Jiao (criminal justice, Rowan U.) examines the value orientations and practices of the Hong Kong police in historical and political context. He first discusses the historical development and traditions of the Hong Kong Police under British rule and through the 1997 transition to Chinese control. He then presents individual chapters examining organizational practices and values as they relate to the structure and operation of the police force, its learning culture, the impact of the Bill of Rights and other civil rights legislation on the police and their cultural traditions, differences between street officers and management officers, types of crimes encountered by the police, and police corruption and misconduct.
