| Instead of being based on scientific evidence the crime policy agenda is seemingly driven by political ideology, anecdotal evidence and program trends. "Evidence-Based Crime Prevention" seeks to change this by comprehensively and rigorously assessing the existing scientific knowledge on the effectiveness of crime prevention programs internationally. Reviewing more than 600 scientific evaluations of programs intended to prevent crime, this book is an understandable source of information about what works, what does not work, and what is promising in preventing crime. |
