Law Enforcement Studies

Paper Summary:

The paper is of the opinion that law enforcement agencies should take a far less racially and ethnically charged forum in processing policy problems of gang violence in urban centers. The paper explains that by focusing more on class-based initiatives (which includes members of all races and ethnicities), there can be a far less violent application of arrests. The paper elaborates that this will allow rehabilitation through the modern deterrence theory to rehabilitate and reintegrate members as law-abiding citizens.

From the Paper:

"The aim of this paper will be to realize the complexities of gang violence in urban environments and implement a strategy that will be void of racial discrimination. By understanding the high rates of drug arrests related to gang violence, law enforcement policy should offer a distinct non-racial approach, which will be class based, rather than based on ethnic evaluations of gang related activity. In this manner, the criminal theory of modern deterrence theory should help to educate and apply non-violent measures to counteract gang violence in America today."
