About the Book

Women Policing across the Globe provides a cross-cultural comparison of the integration of women in policing across the globe, paying special attention to the unique contributions that women make to the field, along with the shared challenges and resistance they face. Individual chapters within the book provide students with a snapshot of the status of women in modern police agencies in the countries of the United States, Kuwait, China, the United Kingdom, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and Taiwan. However, shared issues and successes of women police in many more countries worldwide are discussed throughout the entire book. This book allows students to explore the different origins of entry, specialized roles, their experiences of resistance, and effects of historical events that have shaped the experiences of modern women police from across the world. The authors discuss the new gains women are making, despite the obstacles they face, and ways they are transforming how policing is done every day. And, finally, this book closes with collective issues and successes faced by women police worldwide.

Review :
Women Policing Across the Globe fills a void in comparative research about women’s integration into policing. It illustrates the difficulties comparing women’s and their agencies’ expectations of their roles across cultures and national boundaries. Women Policing Across the Globe is a must-read for police practitioners, scholars, and students who want to understand the unique experiences of female officers working in police agencies around the world. This collection of chapters challenges readers to think about how organizational policies and practices influence the workplace experiences of women who wear the badge beyond the borders of the United States.
