One of the most important roles falls to the police in maintaining law and order in the face of the ever-changing forms of crime in the world. Methods and practices aimed at maintaining the relationship of trust betwe- en human rights and the state during the operation occupy a large space in the social science literature. In this context, it can be said that a transition from a reactive policing to a proactive policing model has taken place in Turkey. This transition also includes the evolution from force exercise to service delivery. Our study attempts to consider the policing experiences of convicts who define themselves as religious within the context of these discussions. All the participants identified themselves as religious, Muslim. Convicts’ religiosity and feelings of guilt were examined from the perspec- tive of social and cultural capital. From the viewpoint of this problematiza- tion, the convicts’ police experiences were subjected to qualitative pheno- menological analysis. As a result of the research, it was found that religious teachings, as an element of cultural capital, do not prevent the commission of crimes, but have a formative effect in the process of police intervention

Sosyal Sermaye Gerçekliğinde Hükümlülerin Polis Müdahalesine Yönelik Deneyimleri

Öz

Dünyada sürekli değişen suç biçimleri karşısında asayişin sağlanma- sında en önemli rollerden biri polise düşmektedir. Suça müdahale sırasında, insan hakları ile devlet arasındaki güven ilişkisini sürdürmeye yönelik yön- tem ve uygulamalar sosyal bilimler literatüründe geniş yer tutmaktadır. Bu bağlamda Türkiye’de reaktif polislikten proaktif polisliğe geçişin gerçek- leştiği söylenebilir. Bu geçiş aynı zamanda güç kullanımından hizmet sunu- muna evrimi de içerir. Çalışmamız, hükümlülerin polislik deneyimlerini bu tartışmalar bağlamında değerlendirmeye çalışmaktadır. Tüm katılımcılar kendilerini dindar, Müslüman olarak tanımlamıştır. Hükümlülerin dindar- lıkları ve suçluluk durumları sosyal ve kültürel sermaye açısından ince- lenmiştir. Bu sorunsallaştırma açısından hükümlülerin polislik deneyimleri niteliksel fenomenolojik analizine tabi tutulmuştur. Araştırma sonucun- da, kültürel sermayenin bir unsuru olarak dini öğretilerin suç işlenmesini engellemediği ancak polis müdahalesini anlama ve deneyimleme sürecinde biçimlendirici bir etkiye sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
