This guide serves as an introduction to SSR and suggests some key sources for further reading. It is available as a downloadable document from www.ssrnetwork.net along with a database of key UK and international actors in SSR and a comprehensive SSR acronyms list, which form useful complementary reading to this guide. This is the revised version of the guide and includes references to the recently published OECD DAC Handbook on Security System Reform: supporting security and justice – currently the only international set of principles laid down to guide SSR programming. It also includes a number of new sections and literature references.
