Policing, Boundaries and the State: The Changing Landscape of Sovereignty and Security. Introduction to the Edition
C. Giacomantonio (1) & H.O.I. Gundhus (2)

Abstract
This special edition of the European Journal of Policing Studies examines these institutional rearrangements of policing, boundaries and the state. Through a combination of empirical, theoretical and legal scholarship, each contribution uniquely examines the profound transformations taking place in contemporary Europe and elsewhere, and the questions these transformations raise for policing in democratic societies.

Talking to the Man. Some Gendered Reflections on the Relationship Between the Global System and Policing Subculture(s)
B. Bowling (1) & J. Sheptycki (2)

Abstract
This paper reflects on the interplay between the transnational subculture of policing and the subculture of transnational policing and pays particular attention to the encoding of masculine tropes within them. It uses the culture/subculture distinction to illuminate how gendered masculine identities help to mediate the relationship between the broader culture of control and the occupational subculture(s) of policing. The paper is part of an attempt to theorize global policing as a synecdoche of the global system, an idea that is fundamentally challenging to our ideas about the boundaries of the state. In this paper we draw attention to the specifically ‘masculinist’ nature of the discourse concerning global policing practice, which is often essentialized in dyadic terms; in extremis, in terms of chivalrous knights and rapacious Bluebeards. The paper looks at the militarization of US policing and briefly explores the global terrain of public order policing in the contemporary period, again drawing attention to the masculine tropes that pervade the scene. The paper endeavors to show how the prevalence of problematic masculine role-types in the enactment policing subculture(s) affects the global system.

Justifications and State Actions. EU Police Cooperation, Schengen Borders and Norwegian Sovereignty
S. Ugelvik (1)

Abstract
Building on an assessment of Norwegian policy documents from 1994 to 2012, this article provides a critical analysis of the process leading up to the Norwegian agreements with EU, primarily those concerning police cooperation. The purpose is to discuss the Norwegian Government’s justifications for entering into the agreements throughout this period. The Norwegian Government firstly argued that the pertinent agreements were imperative to maintain the free travel-arrangements already existing between the Nordic countries. This justification was shortly after moderated, and had a few years later disappeared completely. It was replaced by a former secondary argument; the pressing need for enhanced police cooperation. This article presents some of the changes the EU agreements involved for the Norwegian police. It shows a discrepancy between the policiary needs and purposes as these were presented fluctuating throughout a relatively short period of time. Further, it

Een veel gehoorde klacht is dat de samenleving alsmaar verhardt. Conflicten worden uitvergroot, mensen raken snel in de ‘vechtmodus’ en sociale media zoeken de grenzen van het toelaatbare op. Echtscheidingen worden ‘vechtscheidingen’ met nadelige gevolgen voor alle betrokkenen. Deze verharding gaat samen met een toenemende roep om straffen en repressieve maatregelen. Ook wordt met de mond beleden dat er meer aandacht voor slachtoffers moet komen. De noodzaak van verzoening en heling raakt hierdoor op de achtergrond.

Dit boek staat stil bij de spanning tussen verharding, vechten en straffen aan de ene kant, en de noodzaak tot bemiddeling, conflictbeslechting en heling aan de andere kant. Hoe uit zich dat in de mediationpraktijk? Biedt dit soms ook nieuwe mogelijkheden voor mediation? Hoe zou transformatieve mediation hierbij een rol kunnen spelen? Hoe kunnen de slachtoffers worden bijgestaan?

Naast deze problematiek worden in het boek ook andere actuele thema’s op het terrein van mediation uitgediept, zoals geschiloplossing in familiebedrijven, het nieuwe ontslagrecht en exit-mediation, nalatenschapsmediation, mediation in de zorg, en het belang van mediation bij de rechtenstudie.

Dit handboek behandelt niet alleen het op te stellen verslag (artikel 181 W. Venn.) door de commissaris, externe accountant of bedrijfsrevisor, maar tevens de verslaggeving na de ontbinding gedurende de vereffening en bij sluiting van de vereffening.

Bovendien worden een aantal praktische modellen en voorbeelden gegeven, waardoor dit werk een zeer gebruiksvriendelijk instrument voor de beroepsbeoefenaar vormt.
