The Unbearable Lightness of Community --Notes --IndexPoliticians, citizens, and police agencies have long embraced community policing, hoping to reduce crime and disorder by strengthening the ties between urban residents and the officers entrusted with their protection. That strategy seems to make sense, but in Citizens, Cops, and Power, Steve Herbert reveals the reasons why it rarely, if ever, works. Drawing on data he collected in diverse Seattle neighborhoods from interviews with residents, observation of police officers, and attendance at community-police meetings, Herbert identifies the many obstacles that make effective collaboration between city dwellers and the police so unlikely to succeed. At the same time, he shows that residents' pragmatic ideas about the role of community differ dramatically from those held by social theorists. Surprising and provocative, Citizens, Cops, and Power provides a critical perspective not only on the future of community policing, but on the nature of state-society relations as well.Community organizationUnited StatesCommunity lifeUnited StatesCommunity policingUnited StatesPolice-community relationsUnited StatesCrime preventionCitizen participationUnited Statescommunity, law enforcement, policing, crime, urban, city, trust, race, neighborhood, beat cop, nonfiction, collaboration, police, citizen participation, prevention, legitimacy, legal system, criminal justice, arrests, racism, governance, government, politics, democracy, social change, criminology, sociology, stop and frisk, search.Community organizationCommunity lifeCommunity policingPolice-community relationsCrime preventionCitizen participation363.2/3/0973Herbert Steven Kelly1959-1605259MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818759103321Citizens, cops, and power4122727UNINA
