Community Policing : Chicago Style, Hardcover by Skogan, Wesley G.; Hartnett, Susan M., ISBN 0195105605, ISBN-13 9780195105605, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK With the support of the Clinton administration, the highly visible cop of yesteryear is back walking the local streets (and representing its ethnic diversity) as the cover illustrates. The contemporary wave of community policing requires reinventing of police departments and citizen involvement. As a case in point, Skogan and Hartnett (Northwestern U.) evaluate the transitional experience of a major American city with the largest community policing program in the nation. They address such issues as why Chicago adopted this policy, the politics and logistics involved in its planning and implementation, the commitment required, why such experiments have failed elsewhere, and its impact.
