Policing, Security and Democracy
Author: Stanley Einstein
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780942511956
Category : Community policing
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book contains 15 articles concerning the relationships between police, security, and democracy. The book features data on the social, official, public, and private reaction to crime as it is related to the first link in the criminal justice system, the police. It also explores the relationships between police reactions to crime within the context of "democracy" as dynamic, ongoing political arrangements, processes and as a value system. The book is divided into five sections: (1) articles centered upon the theory of the relationships between police and democracy; (2) community policing as the supposed apex of democratic policing; (3) police and policing in stable democracies; (4) police and policing in societies that are in transition from repressive regimes towards democratic political systems and/or free market economies; and (5) special issues which democratic police and policing must consider either because of technical or social developments or because they are inherent in the processes and essence of police and security forces exercising their mandates. Notes, figures, tables, references, appendix, index.

Problem-oriented Policing and Crime Prevention
Author: Anthony Allan Braga
Publisher: Willow Tree Press
ISBN: 9781881798415
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Braga argues that problem-oriented policing has been evaluated as effective in controlling a wide range of crime and disorder problems, ranging from burglaries and robberies, to prostitution and various types of violence. He analyzes why problem-oriented policing interventions are effective and, thereby, intends to broaden the use of this approach in everyday policing.Problem-oriented policing directs attention and resources to the underlying problems that lurk behind many recurring crime problems. Braga summarizes the extensive worldwide research literature on three types of interventions:reducing opportunities for crime at problem-plagued places (e.g., bars, housing projects) through enforcement-oriented and/or environmental measures;targeting high-activity (repeat) offenders; andprotecting the victims of repetitive offenses. Braga concludes with ideas for correcting deficiencies in current approaches to problem-oriented policing. These suggestions address how to improve crime analysis, enhance the measurement of police performance, and secure productive police-community partnerships.

A Criminology of Policing and Security Frontiers
Author: Lippert, Randy
Publisher: Bristol University Press
ISBN: 1529202515
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Policing and security provision are subjects central to criminology. Yet there are newer and neglected forms that are currently unscrutinised. By examining the work of community safety officers, ambassador patrols, conservation officers, and private police foundations, who operate on and are animated by a frontier, this book reveals why criminological inquiry must reach beyond traditional conceptual and methodological boundaries in the 21st century. Including novel case studies, this multi-disciplinary and international book assembles a rich collection of policing and security frontiers both geographical (e.g. the margins of cities) and conceptual (dispersion and credentialism) not seen or acknowledged previously.
