이 연구는 경찰공무원 및 경찰조직의 부패방지를 위해 청렴성을 제고하는 방안 을 수립하는 것이 목표이다. 경찰부패는 경찰의 권한과 직업적 특권의 남용에 의하 여 각종 유혹에 굴복하는 것이므로, 무엇보다 청렴성의 제고가 필요하다. 청렴은 부패를 방지하고 도덕적 규범에 일치하여 행동하는 품질이기 때문에 경찰공무원 및 경찰조직이 부패에 저항할 수 있게 하는 강력한 행동규범이 된다. 따라서 이 논문은 경찰부패 방지를 위하여 청렴성의 개념정립, 경찰부패의 현황과 경찰의 자 기 통제, 부패의 요인별 사례를 검토한 후 경찰공무원의 개인적 요인, 제도적 요인 그리고 환경적 요인에서 경찰 청렴성 제고 방안을 제시한다. 경찰공무원의 개인적 요인에서 청렴성을 유지하기 위해서는 윤리적인 경찰공무 원상의 정립 및 윤리적 리더십의 확립이 요구된다. 경찰의 제도적 요인에서 청렴성 달성을 위해서는 경찰조직에서 청렴관리의 실천 그리고 내부고발제도의 실질적 운 영이 필요하다. 경찰 환경적 요인에서는 고결한 명분의식의 배제 그리고 윤리적 책 임의식의 함양이 필요하다. 고결한 명분의 부패를 해소하기 위해서는 합리성의 원 칙에 따른 선택, 행위합리화와 잘못된 부문화의 배제, 조기경보제도 운영 그리고 윤리적 딜레마 해결을 위한 합리적 의사결정력의 제고가 요구된다. 윤리적 책임의식의 함양을 위해서는 인성과 도덕성 위주의 채용, 교육ㆍ훈련에서 강의식보다 역할극의 활용과 윤리적 딜레마에 대한 가상훈련, 일탈사례 중심과 시 청각 교육의 확대, 경찰현장과 학교의 지속적 연계를 통한 평생교육체계의 확립 그 리고 청렴성 제고를 위한 교육의 확대가 필요하다.
