Community involvement in policing decisions

Final Literature Review
Assume you have been assigned by the Chief of Police to identify an evidence-based strategy to

improve community-police relations. The Chief has instructed you to submit a literature review

explaining what researchers have found on the strategy, along with recommendations on how to

move forward with implementing the new initiative in your department.

You are free to select any subject area we studied during this semester. Your literature review

may include, but not necessarily be limited to, police recruitment, social media policies,

changing patrol strategies (order maintenance vs. crime-fighting), customer service training for

police officers, discipline, use of force, use of non-lethal force, high-speed pursuit, civilian

review panels, etc.
