Sažetak
This paper explores the Croatian emigrant views of police integrity in Croatia and the USA. The Croatian emigrants residing in the United States of America were surveyed in 2017. The questionnaire contained six hypothetical vignettes describing examples of police corruption and it instructed the respondents to evaluate how serious these examples of police corruption are and to estimate how serious police officers in both countries would evaluate these behaviors. The results show that the Croatian emigrants assessed the seriousness of different types of police corruption very similarly in both countries, but expected that the Croatian police would evaluate these behaviors as much less serious than they expected the police in the United States would. An in-depth exploration indicates that their own estimates of seriousness are dependent on neither their emigrant status nor frequency of their visits to Croatia.
