Community Policing in Indigenous Communities

By: Nalla, Mahesh K.

Book Overview

Indigenous communities typically challenge the laws of the nation states of which they have become-often reluctantly-a part. Community policing has emerged in many of these regions around the world. Through a series of case studies, this volume explores how these often deeply divided societies operate under the community policing paradigm. Drawing on the expertise of policing practitioners and researchers across the globe, the book explores how community policing originated or evolved in each community. It examines organizational attributes as well as its effectiveness in reducing and or preventing crime and disorder.
