Summary

This perfect balance of the concepts and practical applications of community-oriented policing uses updated research and real case studies to detail and describe various police programs that have been implemented, their success or failure, and discusses the current issues surrounding these programs. Following a thorough discussion of the evolution of community-oriented policing, this book covers neighborhood-oriented policing, problem-oriented policing, integration, organization and management, the role of the police, the role of the community, the role of the chief, community-oriented policing implementation, the federal government's role, and the future of community-oriented policing. An excellent resource for those involved in police-community relations and in the criminal justice system.
