ABSTRACT

While the COVID-19 pandemic is still infecting without unpredictable estimations around the world, the role of law enforcement in the deal with this crisis is still debating. Mainly, among multidisciplinary research studies, the question of policing and police responses to deal with this virus is necessary to look for different approaches and several comparisons between national, regional, and international scale. This paper is the first study to introduce and analyse the model of community policing in COVID-19 in Vietnam as a new lens to balance between sensor and convince in policing. Using mixed methods research to combine between primary and secondary data in the period of five continuous phases, from January to July 2020, the study looks for how the 4-P's approach in policing of Vietnam contributed to limit the spread of the virus. Main findings pointed out that proactive activities, propaganda approaches, protective measures, and preventable forms are prioritised to implement in the community-based policing (CBP) to prevent and combat COVID-19. Depending on each scenario and relevant requirement, these four initiatives of Vietnam’s police will be conducted as flexible and harmonic as possible based on people-centred approaching. Finally, the paper identifies some practical recommendations that need further discussions to improve the effectiveness of CBP in health crisis in the future.

摘要

尽管 COVID-19 大流行仍在全球范围内蔓延，但没有不可预测的估计，但执法部门在应对这场危机中的作用仍在争论中。主要是，在多学科研究中，应对这种病毒的警务和警察反应问题是必要的，以寻找不同的方法以及在国家、区域和国际范围内进行多次比较。本文是第一项介绍和分析越南 COVID-19 社区警务模型的研究，作为在警务中平衡传感器和说服之间的新镜头。该研究使用混合方法研究，将 2020 年 1 月至 2020 年 7 月五个连续阶段的主要和次要数据结合起来，研究 4-P 在越南治安中的方法如何有助于限制病毒的传播。主要调查结果指出，在社区警务 (CBP) 中优先实施主动活动、宣传方法、保护措施和可预防形式，以预防和对抗 COVID-19。根据每个场景和相关要求，越南警方的这四项举措将在以人为本的基础上尽可能灵活和协调地进行。最后，本文确定了一些需要进一步讨论的实用建议，以提高 CBP 在未来健康危机中的有效性。越南警方的这四项举措将在以人为本的基础上，尽可能灵活、和谐地进行。最后，本文确定了一些需要进一步讨论的实用建议，以提高 CBP 在未来健康危机中的有效性。越南警方的这四项举措将在以人为本的基础上，尽可能灵活、和谐地进行。最后，本文确定了一些需要进一步讨论的实用建议，以提高 CBP 在未来健康危机中的有效性。
