"Social crime prevention" focuses on the social and economic factors that may contribute to violence and criminal behavior in a community. Particularly in the developing world, an understanding of the socioeconomic and political context holds long-term potential for crime reduction (rather than crime displacement); however, the strategies are complex and the results may be slow. Generally, police and law enforcement are relied upon to present quick results, where social crime prevention strategies can be viewed as being "soft on crime" or too slow. This Brief discusses the tension between the traditional role of police and proactive social crime prevention strategies in an international context, through a variety of case studies. It also provides recommendations for balancing or reshaping this role. This work will be of interest to researchers and policy makers interested in crime prevention, particularly in the developing world, criminal theory, police studies and related disciplines such as demography, sociology and political science. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Policing,$x2194-6213 ;$v6 606 $aCriminology 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B0000 606 $aSocial Structure, Social Inequality$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010 606 $aPolitical Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000 615 0$aCriminology. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 14$aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general. 615 24$aSocial Structure, Social Inequality. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 676 $a300 676 $a305 676 $a320 676 $a364 700 $aGrant$b Heath$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225137 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483796703321 996 $aSocial Crime Prevention in the Developing World$92844629 997 $aUNINA
