Introduction. Conducting a comprehensive study of foreign features of interaction between police officers and citizens is a very relevant requirement of our time. In addition, at present, the analysis of this work of foreign police units has great scientific and practical significance. The study of foreign positive experience, as well as the analysis of negative factors of this activity will allow domestic scientists and practitioners to develop a more effective law enforcement model for ensuring public order with the participation of citizens. Materials and methods. As empirical data, the author used: foreign legislative and law enforcement practice; scientific research carried out both in our country and abroad on the topic of this work; as well as other information materials revealing the features of the joint fight against crime by the police and the population abroad. Within the framework of the research work, all empirically obtained data on the identified issues were summarized, analyzed and served as the basis for the scientific conclusions made. The methods of this study were a systems approach, logical analysis, systematization, systemic-structural method and processing of information data. The use of such a strategy and this scientific approach allowed the author to successfully cope with the task. The results of the study. Despite the lack of similarity in the state, political and legal systems of the countries of the world, most of them strive to maintain stable law and order in their countries and make every effort to minimize all kinds of offenses and counteract criminal manifestations. And as a rule, the main tasks of maintaining law and order are included in the functional responsibilities of police units. It is also important to note that at the end of the last century, most countries of the world began to adhere to the approach of internal collective security, which is achieved on the basis of close cooperation between police structures and the public. In addition, instead of repressive mechanisms, law enforcement agencies began to apply a policy of partnership with the public, which in turn allowed to significantly raise the prestige of police structures and concentrate on activating measures to counteract criminal manifestations. It is important to note that, first of all, such a law enforcement approach began to be introduced in a number of world powers in accordance with the needs of civil society, and later began to spread widely in other states. Conclusions and conclusions. Taking into account the comparative analysis, as well as a comprehensive study of the experience of the analyzed activity abroad, the author convincingly proved that public participation in ensuring law and order is becoming the most important way to improve the effectiveness of this work in most world powers. The conducted analysis of the features of cooperation between the public and police forces abroad indicates a well-established, organized and structured work in this area in various foreign countries. Having annotated foreign positive activities in the field of ensuring law and order and combating crime, it would be logical in the future to study all the positive aspects of this work by domestic law enforcement agencies with their possible implementation in practice. In particular, it would be correct to take more effective measures for the interaction of law enforcement agencies with the public in joint activities.
