Zusatztext " ? will likely generate a degree of interest in academia as well as contribute substantially to the ongoing conversation on crime-control strategies in urban areas."-Hugh J Martin! in Security Management Informationen zum Autor John P. Crank, Dawn M. Irlbeck, Rebecca K. Murray, Mark Sundermeier Klappentext Drawn from the work of scholars on the cutting edge of police research, this volume provides concrete recommendations for the fundamental reorganization of the policing institution. The authors present a comprehensive planning regimen for urban problems that encompasses security, urban reinvestment, and public planning. They introduce an innovative, practical model for problem-oriented policing in high crime areas and outline a specific methodology for police redeployment. Highlighting the importance of hot spot presence, command integrity, and fundamental organizational change, the philosophy's end goal is long term reduction in crime statistics through effective crime prevention practices. Zusammenfassung The research revolution in police work has uncovered a multitude of data, but this contemporary knowledge has done very little to change the way things are done in most police departments across the U.S., where the prevalent form of policing is based on the traditional model of district assignments and random preventive patrol. Drawn from the work of scholars on the cutting edge of police research, this volume argues for a radical shift in the way policing is approached. It provides concrete recommendations for the fundamental reorganization of the policing institution and presents a comprehensive planning regimen for urban problems that encompasses security, urban reinvestment, and public planning.
