Public-Private Partnerships: An Examination of the Dynamics of Multi-Agency Arrangements in Different Cultural and Legal Contexts

Ian Messenger

“Public-Private Partnerships: An Examination of the Dynamics of Multi-Agency Arrangements in Different Cultural and Legal Contexts” is available in Hardback and Paperback.

Topics include:

  • The Globalisation of Crime: Beyond the Nation-State

  • The Different Models of Multi-Agency Working

  • Examples of International Multi-Agency Arrangements

  • CEOP as a Domestic Multi-Agency Arrangement

  • ICPN as an International Multi-Agency Arrangement

Facilitated by the effects of globalisation, crime in the 21st century is increasingly transnational in nature and presents a significant challenge to a law enforcement apparatus which is traditionally geared towards operating within the confines of the nation-state. Crime has transcended state borders and has prompted an expansion of international law enforcement cooperation in an attempt to counter cross-border criminality. In doing so, traditional law enforcement actors have increasing collaborated with non-state, and non-law enforcement, bodies. International cooperation and multi-agency working has been especially enacted to combat crimes against children.

This book aims to examine the dynamics of multi-agency arrangements in different cultural and legal contexts with a view to assessing how different cultural and organisation factors affect multi-agency cooperation. This will be done with particular reference to those multi-agency arrangements that have a child protection focus, which operate in, and across multiple jurisdictions and are composed of a diverse range of state and non-state actors. In order to achieve this aim, the book will begin with an analysis of globalisation in order to identify specific elements which have aided transnational criminality but also the response to this criminality has been found in the multi-agency arrangement. To further this point, various methods and models of multi-agency working will be examined; each with their distinctive benefits and challenges.
