• Chapter 1 Police cooperation in legal and political diversity; Chapter 2 Policing in the context of global, regional and transnational normmaking: Theories and practice;Chapter 3 Legal regulation of gobal policing: A tight patchwork?;Chapter 4 European Union police cooperation: Normmaking between peers?;Chapter 5 Cooperative policing in Australasia: Two big fish in a small pond;Chapter 6 Law enforcement cooperation in Greater China: One country, four systems?;Chapter 7 Law Enforcement in North America: Police cooperation at the borders of a superpower;Chapter 8 Globalising cross-border law enforcement regulation;

The literature on international police cooperation has been growing exponentially over the last few decades but there is nothing quite like Saskia Hufnagel’s new book, Policing Global Regions. It compares the approach to transnational police cooperation in four very different jurisdictions, in order to get a sense of what is happening at the global level. The book’s particular focus is on the role of law in transnational police cooperation, and whether it hinders or supports closer cooperation. A product of intensive research, Policing Global Regions is empirically rich, and will be richly rewarding to all those interested in transnational police cooperation.Neil Boister, Professor of Law and Head of School, University of Canterbury.
