Whether they want to or not, police are increasingly having to work with and through many local, national and international partnerships. "Fighting Crime Together: the Challenges of Policing and Security Networks" is an edited collection that explores the development of policing and security networks. It looks at ways in which police can develop new strategies for integrating the knowledge, capacities and resources of different security providers and assesses the challenges associated with such a venture. Academics and practitioners of policing and security recognise that the demand for security in western democracies generally exceeds the capacity of governments to provide it. In the present-day climate of scarce resources, a networked approach to policing and security would arguably lead to more effective service provision. "Fighting Crime Together" draws on contributions from academia and from practitioners: Christine Nixon, Commissioner of the Victoria Police; and Mick Keelty, Commissioner of Australian Federal Police.
