Criminological knowledge depolarization underscores a conscious effort by scholars from the Global South to increase intellectual knowledge focused on developing context-specific responses to issues not aligned to northern ideological positions and specific to non-northern context. Such shifts draw attention to the expanse of spaces beyond northern centres rife with challenges unlike any specific to those experienced or conceptualized by scholars from the Global North with an applied northern criminological lens. Applying a post-colonial lens to empirical knowledge from country-specific cases in former colonies in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, the Pacific and Latin America, this book examines how policing issues not aligned to northern ideological positions and specific to non-northern contexts are addressed. The primary purpose is to share innovations in the field of policing - service provision, threats to security, crime responses, justice and international trends - developed in post-colonial developing country contexts. Given the aim of the book and the contributors' own research on issues of policing across the globe, it discusses themes including but not limited to the colonial legacies and their impact on policing; how plural regulatory systems and partnerships are navigated by the police; the linkages between access to justice, community perceptions and police legitimacy; innovations and challenges in organisational reform, crime prevention and community partnerships; and the expanding roles of police organisations in the Global South. While each chapter presents a policing issue in a country within a specific part of the Global South, the book highlights how important it is to frame responses based on contextual realities informed by an awareness of the past and present, with a goal of informing the future. Delivering a much-needed introduction to those specialising in policing in developing countries, it is invaluable reading for academics and students of criminology, criminal justice, governance, policy, and IR, as well as professionals in policing organizations across the globe"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Law enforcement $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Police $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Criminology $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Crime prevention $z Developing countries. 650 7 $a Crime prevention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883055 650 7 $a Criminology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883566 650 7 $a Law enforcement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993931 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 651 7 $a Developing countries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01242969 700 1 $a Watson, Danielle, $e editor. 700 1 $a Amin, Sara N., $e editor. 700 1 $a Wallace, Wendell C., $e editor. 700 1 $a Akinlabi, Oluwagbenga Michael, $e editor. 700 1 $a Ruiz Vasquez, Juan Carlos, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Policing the global south $d New York : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003126409 $w (DLC) 2022023954 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011828.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5594F4BA2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
