International Security Vol 47, No 2, Fall 2022, pp.7-47 (68)Summary: Global policing efforts go far beyond combatting terrorism. The United States has tracked down war criminals in the former Yugoslavia, prosecuted Mexican drug kingpins in U.S. courts, transferred a Congolese warlord to the International Criminal Court, and even invaded foreign countries to apprehend wanted suspects. Likewise, Chinese police and intelligence forces crisscross the globe engaging in surveillance, abductions, and forced repatriations. But global policing activities are hard to study because they tend to occur "in the shadows." Extradition treaties-agreements that facilitate the formal surrender of wanted fugitives from one country to another-represent a unique part of the global policing architecture that is directly observable.
