Global Data Protection in the Field of Law Enforcement

This work analyses a very complex, little known, yet highly important area of regulatory policy, namely the frameworks that exist in relation to data-sharing for law enforcement purposes, both within the EU and between the EU and third party countries such as the United States. The study also considers the data protection challenges to which these frameworks give rise, and the possible responses to those challenges at both EU and global levels. This is a timely work, and one that adds greatly to the body of academic scholarship in the area.
