Policing global regions : the legal context of transnational law enforcement cooperation / Saskia Hufnagel.

By: Hufnagel, Saskia [author.].
Publisher: New York : Routledge, 2021Description: 334p.ISBN: 9780367409074.Subject(s): Police -- International cooperation | Law enforcement -- International cooperation | International lawDDC classification: 345.052 Summary: "The work analyses law enforcement cooperation mechanisms within the socio-legal framework of global normmaking. The strategies addressed range from legal frameworks facilitating cooperation to formal and informal police networks and cooperation practices. The study also takes into account crime-specific engagement, for example campaigns focusing on drug crimes, terrorism, financial crime, kidnappings and other offences. It explores challenges in policing practice and human rights protection in each region that could be countered by existing strategies in another. As regions usually develop more advanced cooperation mechanisms than exist at a global scale, strategies found in the former could help find solutions for the latter. To map existing strategies and assess their impact on both human rights and policing practice this study relies on an assessment of the primary and secondary literature sources in each region as well as interviews with practitioners ranging from senior police officers to prosecutors, government officials, customs and military staff"--
