POLİSLİĞİN KRONİK HASTALIĞI: KİNİZM

Özet: Polis Yönetiminde, genel olarak yöneticilerin ana gündemi, emirlerinde çalışan personelden çok, belirli kanuni metinlerle tanımlanan polislik görevlerinin en etkin ve verimli şekilde yerine getirilmesidir. Oysaki “insan” unsuru diğer tüm disiplinlerde olduğu gibi polis yönetiminde de her yönüyle değerlendirilmesi gereken bir konudur. Görevi, güvenliği sağlamak olan polis çalışanları hizmet ettikleri toplumla yoğun olarak sosyal etkileşimde bulunan kişilerdir. Bu etkileşim içerisinde topluma ve o toplumu meydana getiren bireylere yönelik algıları çok önemlidir. Bu algı, kendi içerisinde birçok alt öğeyi de barındırmakta, bu öğeler ise nedensellik bağına dayalı olarak bir sarmal içerisinde varlıklarını devam ettirmektedirler. Bu tür bir öğe ağının oluşumu neticesinde meydana gelen kinizm, polis personeli arasında yaygın olan, onların meslekle olan etkileşimlerinin yanı sıra kişilik özellikleri ile de ilişkisi bulunan bir algının meydana getirdiği olumsuz bir davranış çeşididir. Bu yönüyle kinizm polislik açısından tedavisi henüz bulunamamış, örgütsel kronik bir hastalıktır. Bu nedenle bu makalede, temelde “insan” unsuru olmak üzere, polislik hizmetlerinde çalışan personelin genel bir olumsuz davranışı olarak “kinizm”in alt öğeleri ile soruna neden çare bulunamadığı üzerinde durulacaktır.

In police administration, the main agenda of police seniors-rather than their personnel in their command- is to fullfill tasks very efficient and effective which are defined with the certain legal texts. However, the “human” element” is the very first subject which has to be considered in the police administration like in the other disciplines. The police whose task is to provide security are the ones who are socially interacting with the society whom they are serving. In this interaction their perceptions of society is very important. That perception accommodates such police sub-culture elements like auhoritarian personality, machismoism, suspiciousness, ferocity, solidarity, conservatism, confidentiality, alienation and social isolation. When those elements are examined in detail, it can be understood that they go on to exist with the casualty among each other. The cynicism which occurs in these kinds of relations is a negative behavior which is very common among police personnel and is created by the perception which has a relation with not only their interactions with the society but also with their personality.From this point of view, cynicism is a organizational chronic illness whose treatment could not be found so far. Therefore in this article the location of cynicism in police behavioral models as a negative behavior of personnel who are working in police services and why its treatment could not be found will be focused on by taking the “human” element as a base
