The Politics of Police Diplomacy : The Australian Experience by Martin Hess

Serving both international good citizenship and the national interest, the Australian Federal Police has engaged internationally in various capacities over a sixty-year period in UN, multi-lateral and bi-lateral efforts aimed at peace and justice-based solutions. This book reviews many of these efforts through a diplomatic lens and argues that, as an effective instrument of preventative and restorative diplomacy, the AFP has earned a place as a legitimate participant in foreign policy considerations, and that these efforts serve as an example of how international policing can be done and why it merits its own diplomatic Track.
