9 Interpol and the Emergence of Global Policing
Stalcup, Meg. 2013. “Interpol and the Emergence of Global Policing.” In Policing and Contemporary Governance: The Anthropology of Police in Practice. ed. William Garriott, 231- 261. New York: Palgrave MacMillan. Reproduced with permission of Palgrave Macmillan. This extract is taken from the author's original manuscript and has not been edited. The definitive version of this piece may be found in Policing and Contemporary Governance edited by William Garriott, which can be purchased from http://www.palgrave.com. 9 Interpol and the Emergence of Global Policing Meg Stalcup Introduction “The New Interpol is not simply a collection of databases and communication networks,” said Secretary General Ronald K. Noble to national representatives at Interpol’s 2002 annual assembly.1 “You have heard me use the expression—the Interpol police family. It is an expression that we wish to turn into reality” (Noble 2002). The organization, dedicated to police cooperation, had previously taken four to six months to transmit even high-profile requests for arrest between member nations. Notices were sent as photocopies, mailed by the cheapest and lowest priority postage available (ibid.).2 Modernization and reorganization, however, had just cut the time for priority notices to a single day. The Secretary General’s call for “police family” named the organization’s ambition to create fellowship through these exchanges. Interpol is not a police force. Neither national nor international laws are enforced by Interpol directly, nor do staff and seconded police officers working under its name make a state’s claim to the right of physical coercion (vide Weber), or to powers of investigation and arrest. -
