Download or read book We Keep Us Safe written by Zach Norris and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking new vision for public safety that overturns more than 200 years of fear-based discrimination, othering, and punishment As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety? In a time when the most powerful institutions in the United States are embracing the repressive and racist systems that keep many communities struggling and in fear, we need to reimagine what safety means. Community leader and lawyer Zach Norris lays out a radical way to shift the conversation about public safety away from fear and punishment and toward growth and support systems for our families and communities. In order to truly be safe, we are going to have to dismantle our mentality of Us vs. Them. By bridging the divides and building relationships with one another, we can dedicate ourselves to strategic, smart investments—meaning resources directed toward our stability and well-being, like healthcare and housing, education and living-wage jobs. This is where real safety begins. In this book Zach Norris provides a blueprint of how to hold people accountable while still holding them in community. The result reinstates full humanity and agency for everyone who has been dehumanized and traumatized, so they can participate fully in life, in society, and in the fabric of our democracy.

Download or read book The Role of Planning in Promoting Safer Communities written by Ihab El Badawy and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a consistent and predictable relationship between human behavior and the physical context in which the behavior takes place. It is also important to understand that there are no definite environmental solutions that could be generally applied to all communities as done in the past. There are some guidelines that could be generally followed but the main solutions should be implemented individually and according to the uniqueness of every community. This study focuses on the issues of crime prevention and how safety can be improved in several residential communities with high crime rates in Halifax, from an urban design and planning perspective. It discusses the CPTED methods that have been applied since the 1970s across North America, different opinions about them, and the nature of community crimes in Canada. It also discusses the possibility of enhancing safety in the selected high crime communities in Halifax through examining the environmental factors that lead to crime in these communities. Strategy plans that enhance safety according to the uniqueness of every neighborhood will be discussed.

Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Sociology - Law, Delinquency, Abnormal Behavior, language: English, abstract: This research examines how community policing enables the development of community in terms of having social order and crime reduction. One rationale for public involvement is the belief that police alone can neither create nor maintain safe communities, thus a need for the whole community in maintaining social order and putting crime reduction strategies to create a safe environment for people to operate and this can only be achieved through the philosophy known as community policing.
