Policy report: Violent crime - Reconfiguring the debate
01-01-2002
|£7.50| Violent crime is of significant concern to the public, media and policy makers. However, much confusion surrounds the issue, with the public believing they are at greater risk now than ever before of being a victim of the horrific violent offences on which the media and the government concentrate. This report aims to set the discussion going in a different, and more fruitful, direction by correcting a range of confusions and blindspots in the current debate. It argues that a number of different strategies are needed to tackle different violent crimes. It also makes policy recommendations so this can be done as effectively as possible.
