Styles of Urban Policing
Author: Jeffrey Slovak
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 9780814778753
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Using data from 42 sizable American cities on their environments and police organizational structures, the book documents the importance of organizational structure on police action by predicting arrest rates for 2 types of serious criminal offenses. It applies this research perspective to neighborhoods in analyses of policing styles in three cities: Elyria, Ohio; Columbia, S.C.; and Newark, N.J. The study examines the kinds of data on police action available from a police dispatch log, as well as particular information recording processes used in the three sites. Two key indicators of police style are the rate of police aggressiveness and the degree to which local police work is legalistic, watchmanlike, or service-oriented. These measures are used to analyze variations in policing styles across both neighborhoods and cities, providing support to the theory that organization rather than environment determines local policing styles. This view receives additional support from indepth analyses of social, demographic, and economic characteristics of the three sites. Tables, references, and index.

The Last Neighborhood Cops
Author: Gregory Holcomb Umbach
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 081354906X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
In recent years, community policing has transformed American law enforcement by promising to build trust between citizens and officers. Today, three-quarters of American police departments claim to embrace the strategy. But decades before the phrase was coined, the New York City Housing Authority Police Department (HAPD) had pioneered community-based crime-fighting strategies. The Last Neighborhood Cops reveals the forgotten history of the residents and cops who forged community policing in the public housing complexes of New York City during the second half of the twentieth century. Through a combination of poignant storytelling and historical analysis, Fritz Umbach draws on buried and confidential police records and voices of retired officers and older residents to help explore the rise and fall of the HAPD's community-based strategy, while questioning its tactical effectiveness. The result is a unique perspective on contemporary debates of community policing and historical developments chronicling the influence of poor and working-class populations on public policy making.

Book Description
First published in 1999. As with the other volumes in this series, readers will appreciate the clear and compelling way this case study is presented. Reed critiques the way in which political and economic dynamics not only threaten, but convolute the intended benefits of community policing. Although you may not always agree with the author's interpretations, he has given us a compelling look at the potential for corruption of model programs.
