This book presents interviews with high ranking police officials from several different countries, to get a sense of how they think about current problems they face within the specific contexts of their countries and the forces of global change, and what administrative and organizational changes they feel need to be made to respond to changing patterns of crimes and threats in current times.

Policing of Corruption: An international Comparative Perspective
Sarre, Das and Albrecht (Editors)

Corruption within government is a worldwide problem. This volume presents insight from police practitioners and scholars on the nature and extent of this epidemic in both more and less developed countries in all regions of the globe. Editors Rick Sarre, Dilip K. Das, and H. J. Albrecht and the notable contributors shed light on the conditions under which corruption flourishes and its far-reaching consequences for individuals' safety and freedom as well as each nation's security, economy, and even sovereignty. Importantly, this volume also presents innovative anti-corruption strategies to be undertaken by governments, international organizations, and the media. Devoting special attention to malpractice within police forces, The Policing of Corruption is an important resource for all who work to undo corruption and its debilitating effects.

International Police Cooperation: A World Perspective
Koenig and Das (Editors)

Daniel J. Koenig and Dilip K.

This book combines the efforts of leading practitioners and academics in criminology in order to address the challenges of such persistent international problems as organized crime and illegal immigration. Rather than focusing solely on the problems that make cooperation desirable, however, the book is also the most current and detailed account of new international cooperative initiatives. Using an innovative cross-cultural and comparative methodology, Koenig and Das present an invaluable source of information for students of criminology and sociology that will fulfill a long-felt gap in the literature on policing.

Policing Democracies
Das and Marenin (Editors)

This cross-cultural comparison of various systems highlights the universal observation that police are an anomaly in a democracy and explores how various influences-for example, large-scale social violence, a zeal for crime fighting, and vulnerability to temptation-often find police incapable of behaving in a democratic manner. Challenges goes beyond just showing the similarities and differences of the policing challenges democratic societies face, it also examines the responses and remedies adopted by police in various countries at different levels of democratic achievement and how every society struggles with the challenges of preserving democratic values without sacrificing the effectiveness of policing.
