Overview

Gender Inclusive Policing: Challenges and Achievements is an edited collection focused on current challenges, innovations and positive achievements in gender integration in policing in different subject domains and locations. Comprised of essays by expert contributors from across the globe, the book covers a variety of topics including jurisdictional achievements (South Africa, British Isles, Scandinavian countries, Australia), women in leadership (achievements and methods, merit and affirmative action issues), performance comparisons (conduct, ethics, peacebuilding), intersectionality (Indigenous women) and women’s police stations (Argentina). The book explores and grapples with issues of recruitment, deployment and promotion; obstacles to equity; effective integration strategies; management, conduct and policing styles; race and ethnicity; and specialisation. It is an essential resource providing practical exemplars for police managers involved in gender-equity programmes and for professionals involved in advanced-level research, teaching and consulting.
