As the threats posed by organised crime and terrorism persist, law
enforcement authorities remain under pressure to suppress the
movement, or flows, of people and objects that are deemed
dangerous. This collection provides a broad overview of the
challenges and trends of the policing of flows. How these threats
are constructed and addressed by governments and law enforcement
agencies is the unifying thread of the book. The concept of flows
is interpreted broadly so as to include the trafficking of illicit
substances, trade in antiquities, and legal and illegal migration,
including cross-border travel by members of organised crime groups
or 'foreign fighters'. The book focuses especially on the responses
of governments and law enforcement agencies to the changing nature
and intensity of flows. The contributors comprise a mix of lawyers,
sociologists, historians and criminologists who address both formal
legal and practical, on-the-ground approaches to the policing of
flows. The volume invites reflection on whether the existing tool
kit of governments and law enforcement agencies is adequate in this
changing environment and how it could be modernised, for example,
by increased reliance on technology or by reappraising the role of
the private sector. As such, the book will be useful not only for
academics and practitioners who work on security-related matters,
but also more generally to those who are interested in what the
near-term future of policing is likely to look like and how the
balance between law enforcement on the one hand and human rights
and civil liberties on the other can be achieved.
