%X In spite of women joining the police in ever-increasing numbers in Estonia, these numbers, in fact, do not really reflect the actual situation plaguing gender issues in Estonian society. The issue of women in policing in Estonian Police has never been the subject of close academic scrutiny. In order to counterbalance the monosexual tradition of thought, the author seeks to introduce the reader to information on policewomen in Estonia and look at their issues from a female perspective. In addition, the survey of Estonian policewomen and their status enlarges the picture of women in policing to include those in Estonia.
