"IDM Policy Series 2009"
Under its Series II of policy documents (2009) IDM is launching for public debate two separate papers focusing on some very sensitive policy issues of the general framework of security sector. Namely, the Policy Brief focuses on the key concerns and challenges for the implementation of the community policing strategy in Albania. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the progress and through emphasizing the guiding principles for community policing it further outlines a set of recommendations aiming to improve the policy framework and the performance of actors involved in this undertaking.
The Backgrounder is intended to trigger more informed debate, now through a new format, on the legal, policy and institutional challenges related to the interception of communications. This work was based and "provoked" by the series of amendments in the past years to the legal framework regulating such a sensitive issue. Read papers Posted on 21 May 2009
