Introduction

You’ll apply the concepts you’ve studied in this course to research and write a 1,000-word essay concerning law enforcement policies.

Instructions

During the 1990s, New York City adopted a method of policing based on the broken windows theory. Subsequently, crime decreased.

In regard to the policy change, your essay will respond to the following questions:

  • What is the broken windows theory of policing?
  • How did the New York Police Department implement its new theory of policing?
  • How has the number of stops in New York City changed during the past couple of decades?
  • What civil rights issues are raised by New York City’s method of policing?

In order to answer those questions, you’ll need to

  • Research law enforcement policies
  • Relate law enforcement policies to crime rates
  • Relate law enforcement policies to criminological theory

For assistance with resources for this project, please use resources in the library.
