ABSTRACT
Bowling1 argues that there is no part of policing that does not have an international dimension. He has observed that:
• local law enforcement has constructed co-operation and assistance arrangements with their counterparts in other countries;
• national policing structures regularly engage with neighbours on common problems;
• international2 crimes have led to national law enforcement agencies working in other countries;
• transnational3 crimes have demanded regional security arrangements; and, • globally, Interpol provides worldwide operational assistance.
