Global Perspectives in Policing and Law Enforcement provides an
exposition of policing and law enforcement practices, challenges,
and opportunities in twenty different countries that were carefully
selected to represent diverse geographic regions of the world. Each
chapter presents policing from a different cultural background with
diverse historical law enforcement experiences, varied social and
demographic characteristics, and wide-ranging approaches to
political leadership. By examining critical data and highlighting
cracks within law enforcement across multiple countries, the
contributors to this volume have created a framework of policing as
it transitions into a modern outfit. Divided into parts, the book
focuses on a large sample of countries from Africa, Europe, Asia,
and Latin and Central America, North America and the Caribbean, as
well as Australia and New Zealand. Such a broad coverage makes this
book a critical reference point for those interested in criminal
justice, criminology, political science, anthropology, and many
others.

Reflecting on Service-Learning in Higher Education: Contemporary
Issues and Perspectives examines forms of pedagogy such as
service-learning, experiential learning, and problem-based learning
in order to determine how students make connections between and
among abstract academic concepts and real-life issues. This edited
collection is divided into three sections-"Reflecting on Community
Partnerships," "Reflecting on Classroom Practice," and "Reflecting
on Diversity"-so as to represent interdisciplinary subjects,
diverse student populations, and differing instructional
perspectives about service-learning in higher education.
Contributors provide service-learning programs and plans that can
be replicated or adapted at other institutions of higher education.
This book is recommended for scholars and practitioners of
education.

As the world becomes increasingly globalized, a shared
understanding and appreciation of the various aspects and
approaches of criminal justice becomes imperative. Examining
nineteen countries, purposefully selected to ensure not only broad
geographic distribution but also cultural and religious diversity,
political differentiation, and historical experiences, this book is
a go to reference for comparative criminal justice studies, human
rights studies, victimology, gender studies, anthropology, and
political science. Divided into five parts, this book includes
chapters on Sub-Saharan Africa, East Asia and the Pacific, Europe
and Eurasia, the Middle East, and the western hemisphere. Although
each chapter represents a different country, all chapters have
similar thematic sections providing summaries of the wide array of
policing practices, exploring the different types of criminal
procedure used across the world, and recognizing the many methods
that different societies use to sanction criminal behavior among
their citizens.
