Collective efficacy is a neighborhood-level concept in which
community members create a sense of agency and assume ownership for
the state of their local community. This concept is one of several
forms of formal and informal social control that predict the
overall functioning of a community. In this book, the authors
examine collective efficacy and crime in eight Miami-Dade County,
Florida neighborhoods, based on data they collected from across the
country and in the Miami-Dade neighborhoods themselves. They
discuss findings relevant to the theory of collective efficacy
itself, ramifications for its use within communities, and make
recommendations for future research and for translating these
results into actionable, crime prevention activities.
