It offers an expansive overview of crime prevention initiatives and how they are applied across a wide range of themes and infractions, from conventional to non-conventional forms of crime. Based on a review of the literature, this is the first text to offer a broad, yet comprehensive, examination of how and why crime prevention has gained considerable traction as an alternative to conventional criminal justice practices of crime control in developed countries, and to provide a cross-sectional view of how crime prevention has been applied and how effective such initiatives have been. \u003cem\u003eCrime Prevention: International Perspectives, Issues, and Trends \u003c\/em\u003eis suitable for undergraduate students in criminology and criminal justice programs, as well as for graduates and undergraduates in special topics courses. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinterdyk has accomplished a remarkable milestone in editing a collection of the most exciting contributions to crime prevention in recent years. This is an outstanding collection of readings by internationally distinguished scholars on a wide variety of crime prevention issues. Students and practitioners alike will benefit by having these chapters together in a single volume. As for policymakers, the book should be required reading. -- \u003cb\u003eGeorgios A.

The merit of the synoptic approach covering the four corners of crime prevention issues lies in the implicit assumption of a constructivist perspective, and profoundly invites policymakers to leave behind any narrow and limiting understanding of crime prevention. In editing an impressive and diverse collection of work on crime prevention, Winterdyk provides the basis for a holistic perspective. Much of this text could\/should become required reading for students of criminal justice at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) and beyond. –\u003cstrong\u003e Stefan Schulz\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cem\u003eNamibia University of Science and Technology\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contributors to this anthology shift the discussion about crime from its traditional focus on control to prevention, using examples from across the globe. The contributors provide a wealth of information and insight into crime prevention organized around three themes: a global overview of the challenges of implementing these strategies, the prevention of specific crimes (from child abuse to terrorism), and how prevention fits in the crime management discourse. Winterdyk has done a remarkable job of bringing these experts and scholars together to present a topical\/issues-oriented approach that is supported by learning outcomes and critical questions. –\u003cb\u003eProfessor Rick Ruddell, \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eLaw Foundation of Saskatchewan Chair in Police Studies, University of Regina\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgement\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Editor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Contributors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Transformative Power of the United Nations Post-2015 Sustainable Development Goals and Crime Prevention Education for a New Culture of Lawfulness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreventing Violence against Children: The UN Model Strategies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrime Prevention and Transportation Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Prevention of Child Abuse: Applications, Effectiveness, and International Innovations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreventing Domestic Violence: An International Overview\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreventing Human Trafficking for Sexual Exploitation: Ending Demand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunity Crime Prevention and Punishment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocial Crime Prevention: Concepts, Developments, and Challenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestorative Justice and Crime Prevention: Constructive Alternative or Soft Option?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevention of Femicide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerrorism Crime Prevention Policies in Liberal Democracies: Challenges, Dilemmas, and Options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Criminalization of Poverty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreventing Corporate Crime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrime Prevention and the Victims—Lessons Learned from Victimology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Policies of Crime Prevention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmarter Crime Control: Putting Prevention Knowledge into Practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafeguarding Sustainable Crime Prevention: The Rocky Case of the Netherlands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Value of Crime Prevention: Avoiding the Direct, Indirect, and Societal Costs of Crime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50578118541655,"sku":"9781498733670","price":114.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781498733670.jpg?v=1746097986","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/crime-prevention-9781498733670","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
