Abstract
This chapter illustrates how a look at our distant neighbour might provide an interesting perspective for the study of international law enforcement in Europe. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is precisely the agency that is time and again used in the Europol - discussion, both as a negative and as a positive model. The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is the chief exponent of international drug prohibition enforcement. The integration and harmonization of European law and law enforcement to a great extent constituted a form of Americanization. American experience has taught us that after the proliferation of numerous competing agencies within a bureaucracy, that bureaucracy can be reformed, but only with a lot of difficulty.In addition, a pan-European institute developing superior law enforcement technology should be connected to Europol. Keywords:drug enforcement administration (DEA); Europol; Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
