Popis: The Community Policing model prefers a police organisation in which a policy is developed related to the needs of the community and focusses, amongst other things, on trust-building between the citizen and the community. In order to reach this goal, the police needs to have a clear insight into what people think and expect from the police. 120 citizens of different age groups living in a rural or urban area in Belgium were interviewed. A kaleidoscopic view of expectations and meanings of the police was found and is presented in this chapter.
