This subject analyses the international deployment of police in peace keeping, capacity building and other roles. It discusses the various models of intervention and the factors which influence success or otherwise. This subject draws on case studies of international policing initiatives and the growing body of knowledge in this field. The need to create ownership of security sector reform by local populations and the challenges associated with policing across cultures, languages and organisations will also be examined along with the expectations of the home force and reintegration challenges. |
