Summary/Abstract: The reviewed monograph concerns determinants of Interpol’s effectiveness in combating cross-border crime and terrorism. The author focused primarily on a comprehensive analysis of the operational aspects of Interpol’s functioning, indicating both strengths and weaknesses of this organization that affect the effectiveness of international police cooperation. He also touched on legal, organizational and political issues concerning Interpol’s activities in the field of security. The results of research made it possible to confront the mechanisms of cooperation functioning within Interpol with the practice of their use. In this respect, the opinions of law enforcement officers of various member states of this organization who deal with instruments offered by Interpol in their activities, were also analyzed. The entirety of considerations contained in respective chapters made it possible to the Author to formulate and present accurate postulates that could eliminate existing shortcomings and increase the effectiveness of Interpol as a global entity organizing policecooperation in combating crime. The reviewed study is an extremely reliable source of knowledge about the opportunities offered to the member states by the Interpol and its limitations. The monograph expands, systematizes and deepens knowledge about operational activities of Interpol, and the recommendations contained therein are undoubtedly a valuable material for discussion on possible changes in this organization.
