klen dool posted:You've lost me, sorry lmgtfy An institution is a humanly devised structure of rules and norms that shape and constrain individual behavior.[1][2][3][4] All definitions of institutions generally entail that there is a level of persistence and continuity.[5] Laws, rules, social conventions and norms are all examples of institutions.[6] Institutions vary in their level of formality and informality.[7][8] Institutions are a principal object of study in social sciences such as political science, anthropology, economics, and sociology (the latter described by Émile Durkheim as the "science of institutions, their genesis and their functioning").[9] Primary or meta-institutions are institutions such as the family or money that are broad enough to encompass sets of related institutions. Institutions are also a central concern for law, the formal mechanism for political rule-making and enforcement. Historians study and document the founding, growth, decay and development of institutions as part of political, economic and cultural history.

Progressive JPEG posted:lmgtfy I'm afraid I may have not made my point very clear since this - while interesting - isn't what I was talking about at all. I mean that (from Wikipedia) "Policing by consent" indicates that the legitimacy of policing in the eyes of the public is based upon a consensus of support that follows from transparency about their powers, their integrity in exercising those powers and their accountability for doing so. Now, the nzpolice cannot be accountable to the portion of the population who are supposed to have been enjoying sovereignty as the police are not accountable to them, so they can't be "policing by consent" as they claim to be. Now I suppose you could make the argument that since we have Maori seats in parliament (or other cogovernance arrangements) that constitutes a practical facsimile of sovereignty - close enough such we couol consider the police to be policing by consent. I could be amenable to that argument. It's just an idle thought experiment prompted by imaging possible outcomes of the government eroding how much effect the treaty has on the way things work. Edit: oh lol it was a joke

Somewhat unimpressed with RNZ lately. Title of article ED reports huge drop in abuse incidents Content of article "We don't even incident report a lot of the things that happen, just because it's now become such a commonplace scenario."

So the implication is that the abuse incidents rate has risen so high they don't bother to measure it? I'm suspicious that a ED would decline to measure this stuff.

The ED doctor is in Hawkes Bay but the drop in incidents is about Middlemore.

Then later in the article they did it all again. Just without the embracing part after the charges were dropped.
