Description
This book fills a number of gaps in the study of community and crime. How do changes in the urban environment impact upon local (high crime) communities? How do changes in housing provision and consumption influence crime patterning? Can current community safety and urban policies address the needs of high crime, mixed tenure, inner-city areas? And how do community groups respond to neighborhood change, crime and disorder? Hancock makes important theoretical contributions to these and other questions.ISBN:9780333761496
