Assignment 1: Modern Day Policing and Society: Where Are We Headed?Due Week 4 and worth 100 pointsIn this course, we have been learning about the different eras of policing from the inception of the first police force in 1829 to the current era of policing today. Two of the more recent eras are the Community Policing era that began in the 1980’s as well as the more recent Technology era present today.Based on the current climate, there is a level of distrust today between the police and the public. Riots, marches, and protests in response to high-profile police shootings have eroded the relationships that were built through community policing. With the hopes of improving police efficiency and finding new approaches to working together with the public, the country is again ready for a new era of policing. Use the Internet and your textbook to research the different eras of policing up until today. Based on the role and function of police officers changing over the years, address the questions below relative to the current state of policing and where we are headed in the future. As an optional component of this assignment for extra credit, you may also interview a law enforcement professional to get his/her explanation on this topic. 10 POINTS!!Write a three to four (3-4) page paper using Strayer Writing Standards (SWS) in which you: Examine the Community and Technology eras of policing.
