This collection reviews and analyzes aspects of community policing that have prompted increased attention at both the academic and practitioner levels. Twenty-two unique and influential articles address the vital issue of community policing. Historical and conceptual frameworks are discussed in several pieces. In addition, well known researchers explore in depth the challenges that face police officers in incorporating community policing strategies. Practitioners in the field explain their own experience with implementing the various elements of community policing. Finally, several scholars who have influenced the development and implementation of community policing examine future directions.
