Number of pages:
6
ABSTRACT:
6 pages in length. Community interactivity where criminal justice is concerned has become a critical component in the ongoing struggle to balance the ever-lopsided presence of perpetrators to law enforcement officers. Until recently, the aspect of a closed-system approach was looked upon as the most appropriate way to protect society against criminal infiltrators, however, law enforcement officials have come to realize the beneficial impact of involving community members by means of the open-system approach is not only practical and advantageous from a criminal justice perspective but also economically sound in a time when police funding is stretched as far as it can go and it still comes up short. At issue, however, is the manner by which myriad communities across the country have failed to realize these benefits and continue to employ a closed-system ideology. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
