`This text represents a major contribution to the literature on crime prevention and community safety.

Collectively the contributions to this volume present a critique of current policy and open up the field of study to new directions. While engaging with the dominant focus on `what works in crime reduction and community safety, the book also moves beyond the traditionally narrow, technical boundaries of much previous debate. Crime Prevention and Community Safety: New Directions looks at: -The relationship between crime control, communities and the nation state; -The diverse and changing sites of conflict, compromise and collusion around crime control policies; -Wider issues relating to `risk , safety and `security . The central feature of the volume as a whole is a commitment to exploring new directions for research and analysis, theoretically, empirically and comparatively.
