Abstract
The language of partnerships pervades present-day conceptions of crime
prevention, community and policing. In contrast to a reliance on rigid,
hierarchical bureaucracies, ‘networks of diverse group interests have
become the dominant ethic’ (Crawford 1997: 25). The emphasis on community
policing has placed obligations on police agencies to focus on crime prevention
and working with the community. As a result, police are expected
to work through networks and to develop common approaches to such
objectives with other agencies as well as with the local community.
