Publisher description
Do citizen and police initiatives have any impact on the incidence and fear of crime? This volume brings together studies, undertaken by well-respected criminal justice scholars, of some community crime prevention programmes that were introduced in several major US cities.
The volume is unique in its breadth of focus: its contributors address a broad and varied audience, including practitioners, policy-makers and scholars interested in community crime prevention and evaluation research. They present detailed descriptions of the intervention, the evaluation of the intervention and the issues surrounding both. Other topics discussed include the process of encouraging and organizing citizen involvement, the setting of programme goals and useful forms of assessment.
Community Crime Prevention promises to stimulate much further discussion, research and policy analysis
