Policing for Prevention: Reducing Crime, Public Intoxication & Injury (Crime Prevention Studies, Vol 7)

Although most authors of this volume are Australian, the themes are universal: the regulation and control of public drinking; policing alcohol-related violence, drug consumption, and public disorder; accident and injury prevention; the management of police resources; and problem-oriented policing.The Australian case studies are augmented by contributions from Sweden (on public order) and the United States (on auto theft), sharpening the focus on how police and regulatory resources can be directed most effectively to the prevention of violence, accidents, disorder, and property crime.
