Book excerpt: This report of a study based on 30 months of research from 1980-83 documents the accelerated growth of private security resources in the past decade, discusses a fundamental shift of primary protection responsibility from the public to the private sector, and outlines strategies to improve cooperation between police and private security. Research methods included a literature review; interviews with over 400 people in law enforcement and contractual private security; surveys of 1,600 law enforcement and security managers; a survey of State agencies regulating private security; and a market analysis of the private security industry. Field studies were conducted in two urban counties, Multonomah County (Portland), Oregon, and Baltimore County, Maryland. The report presents an overview of street crime, public fear of crime, and economic crimes found in businesses and institutions. It then describes the resources of proprietary and contractual security operations. Areas covered include guard and patrol services, private investigators, alarm companies, armored transportation, and security consulting. The common operating aspects of contract security are identified, as are characteristics of private security personnel. The market analysis of the industry provides detailed baseline data for each major category of security products and services to support the report's contention that private security is a massive potential resource for community crime prevention and control. The report describes the interaction of public and private security forces in terms of frequency and type of contact, exchange of resources and information, cooperative programs, and impediments to relationships. Two problems of national dimensions are highlighted: police moonlighting in security and problems caused by false alarms. This study also examines strategies for upgrading security operations and personnel and assesses the impact of technology on police-private security relations. A concluding summary of the study's findings includes recommendations and a future research agenda.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the growth and changes in the private security industry between 1970 and 1990, discusses emerging and continuing issues and trends in private security and its relationships with public law enforcement, and recommends measure and research to improve cooperation between private security and law enforcement. Data came from a review of previous research, individual and focus group interviews, and an analysis of market data. Results indicated that the increased use of locks, security lighting, and other private and public security measures reflect a growing fear of crime, even while statistics show stable or declining crime rates. In addition, the frequency and cost of business crime are increasing. Additional crime problems include breaches of business ethics, drug abuse, computer crime, and terrorism. The primary responsibility for protective measures has also been shifting from public law enforcement to private security, indicating the need for greater cooperation between the public and private sectors. In addition, contract security companies are growing, while proprietary security organizations are decreasing in number. Major issues include the privatization of police support tasks, false alarms, police moonlighting, and the growing use of private adjudication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of crime policy in the United States for many generations has been hampered by a drastic shortage of knowledge and data, an excess of partisanship and instinctual responses, and a one-way tendency to expand the criminal justice system. Even if a three-decade pattern of prison growth came to a full stop in the early 2000s, the current decade will be by far the most punitive in U.S. history, hitting some minority communities particularly hard. The book examines the history, scope, and effects of the revolution in America's response to crime since 1970. Henry Ruth and Kevin Reitz offer a comprehensive, long-term, pragmatic approach to increase public understanding of and find improvements in the nation's response to crime. Concentrating on meaningful areas for change in policing, sentencing, guns, drugs, and juvenile crime, they discuss such topics as new priorities for the use of incarceration; aggressive policing; the war on drugs; the need to switch the gun control debate to a focus on crime gun regulation; a new focus on offenders' transition from confinement to freedom; and the role of private enterprise. A book that rejects traditional liberal and conservative outlooks, The Challenge of Crime takes a major step in offering new approaches for the nation's responses to crime.
