what Waddington thinks the essential function of police is. “In this chapter Waddington argues that the definition of policing is…”
Your assignment How does Waddington define the essential task of policing? How does the story of the shift he observed with the two Chicago officers illustrate his definition? While there are many functions that police perform, what is the most basic one, common to police in a variety of countries? Discuss. Your essay should be at least 750 words long (in Word 2010, click on the Review tab to find the Word Count feature). Please use the academic format: a. First, write a thesis statement that explains, in a nutshell, what Waddington thinks the essential function of police is. “In this chapter Waddington argues that the definition of policing is…” o Note: It sounds like a first draft if you begin, “In this paper I will discuss what Waddington believes the definition of policing is.” Instead, decide ahead of time what Waddington’s definition is, and start with that. b. Next, write an introduction that includes your thesis statement. The introduction of the paper should serve as a preview of the conclusion. c. Now organize your supporting discussion. d. Then write a conclusion that reminds the reader of what the paper set out to do. But, if you find that your conclusion contains new ideas such that it differs from the introduction, go back and rewrite the introduction! e. A works cited section, even if the only work cited is the one that is the subject of the paper.
