Understanding the politics of security in city-regions is
increasingly important for the study of contemporary policing. This
book argues that national and international governing arrangements
are being outflanked by various transnational threats, including
the cross-border terrorism of the attacks on Paris in 2015 and
Brussels in 2016; trafficking in people, narcotics and armaments;
cybercrime; the deregulation of global financial services; and
environmental crime. Metropolises are the focal points of the
transnational networks through which policing problems are exported
and imported across national borders, as they provide much of the
demand for illicit markets and are the principal engines generating
other policing challenges including political protest and civil
unrest. This edited collection examines whether and how governing
arrangements rooted in older systems of national sovereignty are
adapting to these transnational challenges, and considers problems
of and for policing in city-regions in the European Union and its
single market. Bringing together experts from across the continent,
Policing European Metropolises develops a sociology of urban
policing in Europe and a unique methodology for comparing the
experiences of different metropolises in the same country. This
book will be of value to police researchers in Europe and abroad,
as well as postgraduate students with an interest in policing and
urban policy.
