ABSTRACT
Restorative policing is a contemporary form of policing that has been used in the UK since the 1990s. It shows similarity to ideas surrounding community policing which at first seems at odds with the large-scale globalised ideas of transnational policing. This chapter will explore whether there are ways in which restorative policing and transnational policing can be reconciled. Restorative policing may be unsuitable for the often severe nature of transnational crimes, however ways in which restorative principles could be utilised in transnational policing to increase social capital will be discussed. Using restorative values as a framework for collaboration and cooperation between agencies may be a way to reconcile the two concepts.
