“…Upaya pemolisian dan penjagaan ketertiban umum dalam demonstrasi atau protes dalam lingkup negara yang demokratis kemudian menyediakan tantangan bagi organisasi kepolisian untuk dapat menyeimbangkan keamanan dan hak-hak sipil. (Baker, 2020) Ini berarti bahwa penjagaan ketertiban umum harus dilaksanakan dengan memperhatikan Hak Asasi Manusia dan tanpa menggunakan kekerasan yang tidak perlu. Hal tersebut kemudian harus selalu dipertimbangkan meskipun di lapangan terdapat kondisi yang tidak memungkinkan.…”

The Covid-19 pandemic has affected the way of policing due to social restrictions, but then gathering and expressing opinions in public cannot be prevented, because this is a part of human right. Crowd control during the pandemic, one of which was escorting community convoys, then became a challenging task for the police. This paper aims to analyze the application of police discretion in escorting community convoys during the Covid-19 pandemic. Qualitative methods were used in the development of this research, by conducting literature studies and interviews in collecting data. The analysis in this study is based on discretionary theory and procedural justice theory. The results of the analysis show that currently policing is shifting to adjust to pandemic conditions, one of the important elements is the expansion of the police's discretionary authority in handling pandemics in the field related to law enforcement, especially regarding social restriction policies. This discretion then needs to be applied in public order management and crowd control. The way that the police can do in crowd control is to develop intense communication with the community to create dialogue-based solutions that the community will voluntarily comply with. The implementation of escorting community convoys in the jurisdiction of Polda Metro Jaya shows that the police who carry out escorts are still unable to apply discretion properly, causing discriminatory discretion and non-function discretionary deviations. This then causes public doubts about the ability of the police to exercise discretion in order to achieve justice

“…Through uniting the crowd around a new norm of conflict against the police, the police intervention thereby creates the hostile crowd and public disorder that they feared (Stott & Drury, 2000). ESIM dynamics are not restricted to U.K. contexts, with evidence now from four different continents in addition to the United Kingdom: North America (Maguire, Barak, et al, 2020), mainland Europe (Brechbuhl et al, 2020; Jetten et al, 2020), Asia (Stott et al, 2020), and Australia (Baker, 2020).…”

Waves of riots are politically and psychologically significant national events. The role of police perceptions and practices in spreading unrest between cities has been neglected in previous research, even though the police are significant actors in these events. We examined the role of police interventions in the spread of rioting to one English city in August 2011 by triangulating multiple data sources and analyzing police accounts and community-participant interviews. Rioting in other cities had relatively little direct influence in the community, but it led to heightened vigilance in the police. The resultant police mobilization inadvertently created a large gathering in a local community with a history of hostile relations with police. Police attempts to disperse the crowd affected many more people than those originally intending to riot, leading to collective conflict. These findings support a new theoretical account of the role of policing in riot spread. Complementing existing accounts of diffusion, our study helps explain how self-fulfilling prophecy can operate to spread conflict between cities.
