"La Police Communautaire Aux Etas-Unis," Les Cahiers de la Securite
Interieure, 13 (May-June,1993), 121-149.
This article first reviews the concept of community policing in the United States, with a special
focus on the role of the public in identifying problems and setting neighborhood priorities, and on
citizen involvement in problem solving projects. It then presents a brief history of the emergence of
the concept. The bulk of the paper describes the findings of evaluations of six community policing
programs in six cities: Baltimore, Oakland, Birmingham, Madison, Houston and Newark.
Reference is also made to evaluations conducted in Flint, Hartford, Minneapolis and Champaign,
and an earlier foot patrol study in Newark. There is a discussion of the political, social and
organizational issues faced in implementing these programs, and a summary of the findings of
evaluations examining their impact on victimization, fear, disorder, drug crime, and satisfaction
with police services.
