Abstrakt: The remarkable rhetorical virtue of "integrity" is its ability to bring police willingly into reflective discussions of abuse, corruption, and misconduct that they would be reluctant to discuss in almost any other terms. Everyone is in favor of integrity and is obliged to believe that it should be enhanced. Thus, the attraction of the concept is that it pulls police as well as those who would understand their shortcomings into a joint effort to make things better. It does so by appealing to the noble aspirations of both groups to know and act with virtue. The concept has served this project well not only because just such an effort was the objective of this research but also because the definition of "integrity" employed in this research intentionally restrained some of the concept's most lofty ambitions.
