520 _aThis book seeks to help citizens better understand and practice positive police-community relations. This text is designed for use in a one- or two-semester course on police-community relations or police and society. The book describes the police-citizen partnership as essential to reducing crime. Many disciplines are involved in shaping the partnership in positive ways--criminology, law, history, sociology, and economics, to name a few. The book draws from all of the disciplines and addresses many topics in the context of community relations. For example: (1) the psychological processes that accompany law enforcement in America today; (2) the relationship between crime prevention and community relations; (3) how to apply systems principles to police-community relations; and (4) the nature of the media link to the community. Each chapter includes a summary and learning objectives, conclusions, a student checklist, questions for discussion, and a feature designed to apply concepts, increase understanding, and offer new learning opportunities
