あらすじ
Policing the UAE is the first textbook designed specifically for students, officers, and educators working within the unique legal, cultural, and operational context of the United Arab Emirates. Unlike international policing texts that assume a Western model, this book draws on local examples, legislation, and organisational structures to reflect how policing is actually delivered in the region today. The book covers a wide range of topics including: crime investigation, road safety, organised crime, vulnerable victims, major events, and the growing role of artificial intelligence in law enforcement. Each chapter connects theoretical ideas with real-life examples and case studies from the UAE, such as community engagement programmes and responses to global events such as Expo 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic. Written by former operational police officers and current educators, the book balances academic clarity with practical relevance. Reflective questions and exercises throughout encourage critical thinking and professional development, making it suitable for use across diploma, undergraduate, and CPD programmes. By integrating local practice with global research, Policing the UAE offers a groundbreaking model for police education in the region and provides a much-needed resource for those preparing to lead and serve in 21st-century law enforcement.
