ANALYSIS AS AN EXECUTIVE FUNCTION OF THE INTELLIGENCE-LED POLICING IN THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA

Summary/Abstract: The goal of this research is to identify, scientifically describe, classify and partially explain weaknesses in the application of analysis as an executive function of the Intelligence-led policing model in the Republic of Serbia using scientific research methods. The conducted theoretical research identified problems of a functional nature using the executive function of analysis, which can be classified as follows: 1) traditional (reactive) way of applying analysis about modern proactive models using modern analytical tools, 2) differences in the theoretical definition of data analysis and information, 3) the quality of entered statistical indicators in electronic databases. The executive functions of the Intelligence-led policing model are performed through the criminal-intelligence process, which is an evidentiary tool for analyzing the actions of all forms of criminality, misdemeanours and other security-interesting incidents and enables decision-making based on the collection, processing and analysis of data, as well as the undertaking of preventive measures. A key role in law enforcement intelligence operations is the application of the analysis function, which leads to the improvement of quality based on the previous functions (collection and processing), which contributes to the greater use value of data in further work of criminal police. The research was carried out as a theoretical-empirical one, where the methods of theoretical and empirical research (attitudes and opinions of police officers in the police of the Republic of Serbia) were used, that is: general scientific, logical and empirical methods. In this research, the standpoint that the analysis function can be improved is confirmed both theoretically and empirically, which requires the following (functional) changes: 1) it is necessary that the analysis be carried out using modern analytical methods, such as AnaCap, OIAT, risk and threat analysis, with focus on proactivity, which affects the efficient and effective creation of analytical products; 2) the quality of statistical data entered into electronic databases and the amount of prepared operational reports and information predominantly influence the application of the analysis function and the quality production of analytical products. The scientific justification of the research derives from its expected results, which can: 1) contribute to the deepening and expansion of scientifically verified knowledge in the field of criminal-police, security and organizational scientific disciplines, 2) indicate the directions, areas and topics of future scientific research and 3) enrich the methodological practice of scientific research on the organization and proactive functioning of the police in modern conditions.
