The Ethical Role of Police Subculture 5. Ethics vs. Morals 6. Defining Police Ethics 7. Defining Ethical Leadership Practices 8. The Purpose of a Code of Ethics within Police Agencies 9. Police Professionalism and Responsibility Students should choose one these topics and write about its relevance to police ethics. What are the major talking points about your topic that are important to review. Critically assess the literature on the subject. I am looking for critical thinking and a clear indication that you have a grasp of the literature. Do not include quotes in your work. I want to see your critical thinking skills on display and not a string of quotes written by published authors. Your analysis is what is needed for a successful paper.
