- Summary:
- Is it possible to create democratic forms of policing in transitional and developing societies? This book expands the dialogue so that discussions of democratic policing are more realistic, comprehensive and sensitive to the local context. Detailed case studies on Iraq, South Africa, Northern Ireland and Kazakhstan provide a realistic assessment of the current state of policing.
