    Rationalising conventions (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Conformity by an agent to a convention to which the agent is a party is rational only if the agent prefers to conform given the other parties conform and believes the others will conform. But this justification is inadequate; what, for example, is the justification for this belief? The required rational justification requires recourse to (a) preferences for general conformity (as opposed to merely conditional preferences for one's own conformity) and (b) procedures. An agent adopts a procedure when he chooses to perform a whole set of future actions, as opposed to a single action.

    Drug-related complaints against police: Some findings from a New South Wales study (2005)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Policing 28 (2005), S. 69-83 
    Details
    ISSN: 1363-951X
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Law
    Notes: Purpose - To examine the incidence and prevalence rate of drug-related complaints against police in the New South Wales Police Service (Australia) and compare these rates to officer demographics. Design/methodology/approach - Seven years of complaints data (1993-2000) are examined. The data showed that of nearly 40,000 complaints amounting to over 80,000 allegations, less than 2 percent relate to drug-related allegations. These allegations were isolated and the pattern of officer demographics from these incidents were compared to the police service as a whole, with the aim of exploring if particular groups (such as length of service, age, gender etc.) were particularly susceptible to attracting drug-related allegations. Findings - The most common drug-related allegation was for supplying drugs. The distribution of drug-related complaints follows the general demographic pattern of officers in the police service, though female officers attracted fewer drug-related allegations. Adverse findings, while rare, are most likely to be recorded against lower ranking police officers who have served less time in the police service. Practical implications - The paper shows that demographics alone are not sufficient to identify officers at risk of being on the receiving end of a drug-related complaint. The age, service and rank analysis conducted in this paper has not revealed any particular groups that are more susceptible to allegations of drugs misconduct. This paper therefore supports the idea that a more thorough early warning system tailored to individual officers may be necessary for an effective strategic complaints system. Originality/value - With a pool of nearly 80,000 allegations to draw upon, the research employs one of the largest data sets ever examined. The findings are therefore sufficient to provide robust statistical comparisons, and are of interest to police practitioners, law enforcement managers, and researchers.

    Privacy, the Workplace and the Internet (2000)

    Notes: Abstract This paper examines workplace surveillance and monitoring. It is argued that privacy is a moral right, and while such surveillance and monitoring can be justified in some circumstances, there is a presumption against the infringement of privacy. An account of privacy precedes consideration of various arguments frequently given for the surveillance and monitoring of employees, arguments which look at the benefits, or supposed benefits, to employees as well as to employers. The paper examines the general monitoring of work, and the monitoring of email, listservers and the World Wide Web. It is argued that many of the common justifications given for this surveillance and monitoring do not stand up to close scrutiny.
