Description

ISBN-10 1593459629 / ISBN-13 9781593459628

This text explores community policing -- a revolutionary movement, a philosophy and an organizational strategy that expands the traditional police mandate. It broadens the focus of fighting crime to include solving community problems -- urging police to form a partnership with the people in the community so average citizens can contribute to the police process in exchange for their support and participation.

Profiles feature community policing programs in various cities, and problem-solving case studies cover topics such as drugs, gangs, homelessness, mental illness and robbery.

Study Guide The Study Guide is designed to aid in reviewing material and preparing for exams. The Guide accompanies each new textbook FREE, and is not available separately.
