The research revolution in police work has uncovered a multitude of
data, but this contemporary knowledge has done very little to
change the way things are done in most police departments across
the U.S., where the prevalent form of policing is based on the
traditional model of district assignments and random preventive
patrol. Mission-Based Policing unveils a new paradigm that
transitions policing away from practices that while long-held, have
inadequately dealt with serious crime. Drawn from the work of
scholars on the cutting edge of police research, this volume argues
for a radical shift in the way policing is approached. It provides
concrete recommendations for the fundamental reorganization of the
policing institution and presents a comprehensive planning regimen
for urban problems that encompasses security, urban reinvestment,
and public planning. Introducing an innovative, practical model for
problem-oriented policing in high crime areas, the book uncovers:
Contemporary problems in urban policing today Counter-insurgency
strategy and how it might contribute to successful policing The
five central principles of mission-based policing: focus,
effectiveness, deployment, integrity, and mission's end The concept
of logical lines of operation (LOOs): planning, security,
establishing/restoring essential services, and rebuilding
Strategies for police department reorganization guided by
principles of mission-based policing Potential issues raised by the
concept or applications of mission-based policing, including
practicality, command problems, and perceived risks Outlining a
specific methodology for police redeployment, the book highlights
the importance of hot spot presence, command integrity, and
fundamental organizational change that has as its end goal long
term reduction in crime statistics through effective crime
prevention practices.
