Summary:Surveys the existing state of national, international, and corporate-level regulation of the security industry, including more than forty Codes of Conduct. Thirty case studies look at frameworks for implementing and enforcing standards in other global industries such as the extractive, textile and apparel, toy, toxic waste, financial, sporting, chemical, and veterinary industries, drawing lessons from these industries for the security industry. Identifies five different types of implementation and enforcement: a watchdog, an accreditation scheme, an arbitral tribunal, a harmonization scheme, and a club.
