Forms of Interaction of the National Police with the Public in the Field of Ensuring Public Safety and Order

Abstract

Interaction is a necessary and important part of the work of the National Police, including in the field of public safety and order. Due to the interaction we achieve the coordination of actions and joint activities of the National Police with other entities. Existing forms and methods of the interaction between the National Police and the public do not meet the current requirements and need to be refined or finding new forms and methods. Therefore, there is the need to conduct a thorough study of the problems of the interaction of the National Police with other entities of ensuring public safety and order. The author of the article has analyzed the importance and legal principles of the interaction of citizens with the police in the field of public order protection and combating crime. The concepts and forms’ types of the specified interaction have been defined. It has been concluded that there is a lack of scientific research focused on the problems of the interaction of the National Police with the public in the field of public safety and order, in particular on finding its new forms. To achieve this purpose, the author has revealed the essence of the interaction of the National Police with the public in the field of public safety and order, their relations, as well as has defined the classification of forms of the interaction of the National Police with citizens and their associations in the field of public safety and order. The scientific novelty of the study is that it improves the understanding of the nature and types of forms of the interaction between the National Police and the public in the field of public safety and order. Summarizing the above, we can conclude that the effective implementation of the authorities in the field of public safety and order by the National Police of Ukraine requires the establishment of effective interaction with citizens and public associations. The author has offered some new forms of the interaction between the National Police and the public for the implementation, the use of which can improve the state of law enforcement and the fight against crime.
