Effective Policing and Crime Prevention: A Problem-Oriented Guide

Effective Policing and Crime Prevention: A Problem-Oriented Guide for Mayors, City Managers, and County Executives, is intended to help local government executives understand how local government in general, and local police in particular, can more effectively meet this challenge of establishing public safety. It provides information on general approaches to crime and disorder (including community policing), specific responses to crime and disorder, and the local government executive's role in policing and crime prevention.
