POL1501

Assignment 2

Semester 2

Due 30 September 2024

, QUESTION 1


1.1 Explain the two reasons for introducing a community policing style.
1. Enhanced Community Trust: Community policing emphasizes building
strong relationships between law enforcement and communities. By working
collaboratively, police can foster trust and reduce the perception of law
enforcement as an external authority, which is critical in curbing crime efforts
and addressing community concerns (O’Brien, 2019).
2. Proactive Crime Prevention: A community policing style focuses on crime
prevention rather than just responding to incidents after they occur. By
engaging with community members, police can identify and address the root
causes of crime, promoting broader community well-being and safety
(Trojanowicz & Bucqueroux, 1990).


1.2 Name six role players involved in the formulation of policies.
1. Government Officials: These include elected representatives and
bureaucrats who draft and propose new policies.
2. Police Departments: Law enforcement agencies contribute their expertise
and operational insights to policy formulation.
3. Community Leaders: These individuals represent community interests and
advocate for policies that address local needs.
4. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs): NGOs often influence policy by
providing research, advocacy, and community perspectives.
5. Academic and Research Institutions: These organizations provide data-
driven insights and analyses that inform policy decisions.
6. The Private Sector: Businesses can influence policies related to crime and
safety, particularly concerning community economic development.


1.3 What can be done to foster police-community cooperation in combatting
crime?
1. Organize Community Meetings: Schedule regular community forums where
police can listen to residents' concerns and feedback. This can help police
understand local issues better and build relationships (O’Brien & Sudhakar,
2020).
2. Implement Crime Watch Programs: Encourage community members to
participate in neighborhood watch programs, which foster vigilance and
cooperation between residents and police.
