Policing in Serbia: Challenges and Developments

Abstract

Serbia’s police service still requires substantial and fundamental efforts to replace the old police culture with values that are in accordance with the changing social values of a society that is in transition and which is striv-ing towards membership of the EU. The lack of legal instruments compat-ible with European standards and best practices also hinders the reform process. The slow pace of implementation of the newly-adopted system is a considerable problem in many areas, and police reform is no exception. Speeding up the reform process is of utmost importance, bearing in mind regional security challenges, but further development will depend heavily on the political process
