Editors Goldsmith (law and criminal justice, Flinders U., Adelaide) and Sheptycki (criminology, York U., Toronto) and 15 co-contributors provide a collection of papers that examine issues relating to developing transnational policing. The book is based primarily on papers that were originally presented at a workshop on the emergence of a global constabulary ethic held in Spain in 2004. The 11 papers discuss foreign assistance in Colombian policing, determining the public interest in transnational policing, the role of civilian police in peacekeeping, police building in the Southwest Pacific, and police use of force. The book is distributed in the U.S. by ISBS.
