This eBook looks at policing in Asia and current and historic reforms and challenges associated with police forces across various countries. The authors study topics such as the curbing of police corruption in Singapore and lessons that can be learnt from it, police legitimacy and protest policing with a case study of Hong Kong, political change and the institutional reform of Macao's police forces and a comparative perspective on police powers and accountability in China and Hong Kong. The section on policing in Asia concludes with a fascinating insight into police interpretation examinations in Taiwan during the period of Japanese rule. This eBook also includes three papers on development and education in China. The authors discuss varied topics such as the digital divide among students in India and an analysis of the recent 2014 presidential and parliamentary elections in Guinea-Bissau. This eBook finishes with a literature review of the discursive field of the 'scholarship of application' in the context of academic entrepreneurialism.
