For Interpol see in particular Malcolm Anderson Policing the world: Interpol and the politics of international police cooperation (Oxford: Clarendon Press 1989), H.H Liang's The rise of the modern police and the European state system from Metternich to the Second World War (New York: Cambridge Uni Press 1992) and Policing World Society: Historical Foundations of International Police Cooperation (Oxford: Oxford Uni Press 2002) by Mathieu Deflem. The latter's Technology and the Internationalization of Policing: A Comparative-Historical Perspective (PDF) is also of value.

There has been no major independent study of CrimTrac.
