GENERAL METHODOILOGY:
This study, through the technique
of comparative analysis, develops a model police force based on the socioeconomic and political aspects of varying world regions and subject to the instability projected in threat studies fo forr

To insure maximum validity of developmental
various police structures are examined to ascertain
those organizational factors which are most prevalent in U S and

A brief examination is made of the various conditionE under which police may be utilized in a low intensity warfare environment.
The force structure and operational concepts are based on th e
following principles;
unity of command,
jurisdictional authority,
operational continuity,
organic support resources, operational
and environmental flexibility.
