Overview
Based on the 2008 International Police Executive Symposium, this 6th IPES volume contains expanded, updated, and edited versions of the presentations that best reflect policing without borders. Representing research in the international policing arena, the arguments support the removal of delineations along cultural, gender-related, hierarchical, and educational lines that are detrimental to effective crime prevention. It provides an intellectual analysis of transnational policing as well as important insights into effective police leadership and strategies. Chapters discuss specific issues in Lebanon, China, USA, UK, Southern Australia, Northern Ireland, Montreal, Norway, and Turkey.
