Research has shown that well-functioning whistleblowing within police agencies is important, because these agencies play a key role in society. The perceived risk of retaliation after expressing criticism is the most important factor that an employee considers when deciding whether to act as a whistleblower. Different individuals and different units hold different views about the risk of retaliation after acting as a whistleblower. The police management in general has a lower perception of the risk of retaliation than other employees have. There is a huge difference between the officially presented picture of a favorable climate in the organization in which employees feel free to express criticism, and the perception of the matter that most employees have. The differences are connected to the presence of impression-management strategies that are intended to maximize the good image of the organization, and are the main reason that whistleblowing is not appreciated, despite assurances from the management that it is important.

Like many other public institutions, Danish police is currently part of a movement towards further direct involvement of the so-called civic society. Civic society has long been recognized for its resources that differ from that of authorities as the police. The question of exactly why and how to cooperate effectively with civic society in Danish police forces, is not clearly answered. The aim of this article is to answer some of these questions by combining research with three cases. There are no context-independent formulas, the article argues. There is, however, a method of contextualizing involvement of civic society within the police force; by transferring ‘policing’ to a societal responsibility, policing becomes something authorities does with and not for civic society. The article presents a framework on how Danish police can initiate policing processes in local communities: We identified three policing platforms within which the police can navigate the process of policing with civic society and other authorities, institutions or organizations.
