Includes references.

Ideally, the students in a course on comparative police system have finished the course on police organization and administration. Their knowledge on such course will be their bases in making comparisons with other police systems of other countries. This book gives an introduction to globalization since crimes at present are globalized. In response to global crimes, innovative policing is necessary to combat local crimes before they become global. It also covers the local and global responses of law enforcement officers to crimes. The topics on comparative police system are limited to the United States of America, some European and ASEAN countries. The topics are the fundamentals of police systems like qualifications, recruitment processes, organizational structures, functions and responsibilities of police officers. --Preface of the book.
