Abstract :
The article systematically review and
synthesize police community relations to jointly combat
crime through community policing, community-oriented
policing, and problem-oriented policing. The first section
explains how community policing has become more
popular as a method of enhancing safety and security for
the general populace. In order to resolve security issues
and other issues with social order, it aims to change how
policing organizations solve problems by moving away
from relying on criminal law and processes and toward
using cooperative extra-legal approaches.
The second segment examines problem-oriented
policing, which uses analysis to create crime-reduction
strategies. To assess crime issues and create effective
solutions, this technique makes use of theories of
criminal opportunity, such as rational choice and routine
behaviours. This flexible and dynamic analytic method,
which frequently goes by the name scanning, analysis,
response, and assessment [SARA] model, employs a
fundamental iterative process of problem identification,
analysis, response, assessment, and adjustment of the
response to provide a framework for revealing the
intricate mechanisms underlying crime problems and for
creating individualized interventions to address the
underlying causes of crime problems. The final
paragraph explains the policing of shattered windows
below. Police agencies adopt a perspective of their role
that goes beyond simply responding to and processing
crimes when they practice community-oriented policing,
which has been referred to as both an organizational
approach and a policing philosophy. This vision typically
incorporates the participation of neighbourhood
organizations and individuals in the coproduction of
safety, crime prevention, and solutions to neighbourhood
issues by police agencies.
