This text presents a statement of the philosophy and practice of community policing. Drawing on the experiences of Britain and South Africa, it provides practical guidance to practitioners, students and academics on the possibilities for, and barriers to, effective implementation. Each chapter concludes with a series of questions designed to stimulate the reader to consider the effects and consequences of action. A central theme underlying the text is that community policing is more than a way of thinking: it is a way of providing policing services that meet the needs of diverse communities.
