The Global Making of Policing

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'There is no better guide to policing's place in IR and security studies. In rethinking how policing is made globally, the authors show that police institutions and practices are a core aspect of world politics. Their work makes clear that global policing is about much more than the transfer of knowledge across national boundaries. This is essential reading for anyone looking to develop the research agenda on policing and the production of social order in the international realm.' - Alice Hills, Professor of Conflict Studies, University of Durham, UK

'This exciting collection establishes an understanding of the emergence of global policing that challenges the usual notion of a diffusion of western concepts of making things, especially states, modern. It stresses that ideas about policing can move in both directions - from the west and, when recast, back again. The chapters embrace a range of disciplines and sweep the globe to provide stimulating case studies and illuminating theoretical perspectives. In sum, an important and valuable book.'- Clive Emsley, Emeritus Professor, Open University, UK 'There is no better guide to policing's place in IR and security studies.
