Book excerpt: Policing Gangs in America describes the assumptions, issues, problems, and events that characterize, shape, and define the police response to gangs in America today.

A discussion of research, statistical facts, theory, and policy with regard to gangs, gang members, and gang activity is used as a backdrop. The book is broadly focused on describing how gang units respond to community gang problems, and answers such questions as: why do police agencies organize their responses to gangs in certain ways? Who are the people who elect to police gangs? How do they make sense of gang members - individuals who spark fear in most citizens? What are their jobs really like? What characterizes their working environment? How do their responses to the gang problem fit with other policing strategies, such as community policing?

Download or read book Management Strategies in Disturbances and with Gangs disruptive Groups written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In discussing the management of prison gangs and disruptive groups, the manual advises that the strategy should be to respond to the specific nature of the problem. Where gang activity is rare and a gang culture is not in place, the transfer of gang members out of State may be an effective preventive mechanism. Where gang membership is large, but is only a small proportion of the inmate population, effective control may be achieved by housing known gang members in separate facilities. Where gangs are already entrenched in the institutional culture, prisons must find strategies, such as gang intelligence programs and prosecutorial units, to lessen the impact of gang activities on the nongang inmate population and to reduce gang influence. In examining institutional disturbances, the manual addresses the causes of disturbances, stages in the development of a major disturbance, early warning systems, the management of institutional disturbances, specialized resources for institutional control, and a return to normalcy. A section on staff training discusses general legal considerations in training, the role of the training academy versus the role of the institution, training exercises, and training for special units. Other sections of the manual address post-disturbance activities, case studies, and legal aspects of the management of prison gangs and disturbances.
Download or read book Specialized Gang Units written by Deborah Lamm Weisel and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Between 1980 and the mid-1990s, the number of specialized gang units (SGU) in law enforcement agencies increased substantially. The rise in SGU coincided with the widespread adoption of community policing (CP). This report examined whether CP and SGU are complementary or conflicting approaches. The research approach consisted of field observation of gang personnel in two CP agencies with SGU: Indianapolis, IN, and San Diego, CA. This report describes the specific types of activities engaged in by SGU -- documenting the time expended by SGU personnel on each. The results suggest that SGU can have an important role in modern policing. There is little evidence that SGU conflict with CU in principle or practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the September 11, 2001 US-Terrorist Attacks there has been an overwhelming increase in documented cases of violent acts of extremism made possible by radical terrorist recruitment of domestic gangs. These new, global criminal alliances combine tech-savvy radical extremists and the local knowledge and manpower of U.S.-based gangs creating a greater potential for biological attacks. As a result, both law enforcement and intelligence agencies have been forced to align their coordination efforts to a greater extent with colleges, universities, private infrastructures, and the military to shift national security efforts from reactive to proactive. D. Darell Dones examines the parallel terrorist-gang activities and prevailing psychosocial factors that explain the varying radical beliefs, causations, and behavioral mindset of these criminal partnerships.
