Community Policing in Indigenous Communities

This insightful book shows how local people influence and shape the ways in which they are policed. The book provides new perspectives into how community policing operates-formally or informally-and what police can achieve when they are embedded in local cultures in different parts of the world. Drawing on the local expertise of policing practitioners and researchers from major regions, including Africa, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Pacific, the text provides a global examination of policing that is valuable to academics and practitioners alike.
