Define and differentiate community policing and problem-oriented policing

What will be an ideal response?


Answers should include definitions of community policing as a collaborative effort between the police and community that identifies problems of crime and disorder and involves all elements of the community in the search for solutions to these problems; problem -oriented policing is defined as a method of policing that is geared toward identifying and solving problems within a community that are particularly troublesome and then crafting creative solutions to them. Problem-oriented policing is an analytic framework used by police to identify and solve problems that result in repeated calls for service. In contrast, for policing to be truly community oriented, it must include some degree of citizen involvement. Another, perhaps more controversial way to distinguish focuses on citizen involvement
and satisfaction as an end in itself, while problem -oriented policing is seen to be concerned with achieving a swift reduction in crime.
