Policing Styles

The three most common styles of policing are: 1) watchman style; 2) legalistic style; and 3) service style.  The watchman style deals with order maintenance.  The police have a wide range of enforcement that varies for different communities.  With the legalistic style of policing, the officers are expected to use a single standard of professionalism throughout all communities.  The focus is on arrest and citations.  Lastly, the service style form of policing aligns with suburban and middle-class communities.  This is where there is a prevention of outsiders infiltrating the community.28
