Policing the Neighbourhood: Australian Police Peace-keeping, Capacity-building, and Development in Timor-Leste, Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea

澳大利亚参与海上警务的人数正在迅速增加。 东帝汶和所罗门群岛以及不久后的巴布亚新几内亚都是这些事态发展的一部分。 澳大利亚联邦警察现在是区域安全与发展的关键角色。 本研究对这一趋势进行了评估。该项目通过三个个案研究，审查提供援助的理由、提供援助的不同文化和政治背景、援助的形式以及以前和目前警察援助特派团的成就和缺点。它还将为今后这类性质的活动提供一个分析框架。

Australia's involvement in policing offshore is growing rapidly. Timor-Leste and the Solomon Islands, and shortly, Papua New Guinea, feature in these developments. The Australian Federal Police is now a key player in regional security and development. This study takes stock of this trend. Through three case studies, the project examines the grounds for providing assistance, the different cultural and political contexts in which assistance is taking place, the forms of that assistance, and the achievements and shortcomings of previous and current police assistance missions. It will also provide an analytical framework for future engagements of this nature.
