EUROPEAN POLICE SCIENCE AND RESEARCH BULLETIN SPECIAL CONFERENCE EDITION CRIME, SCIENCE AND POLICING Gloria Laycock United Kingdom Keywords: Crime prevention, policing, crime science. Abstract: In almost every country on earth the primary means used by governments in the control of crime involves the use of a criminal justice system – police, courts and prisons etc. This paper will suggest that, important though these are for delivering justice or retribution, they are not fit for purpose in the 21st Century as a major means of crime control. Much greater emphasis needs to be placed on science and experimentation in developing ways to control crime and particularly in stopping it before it happens. The paper argues for the introduction of crime science as an appropriate discipline upon which to base a more rational and empirical approach to crime reduction and discusses the characteristics of this approach and what it might mean in practice. 1. INTRODUCTION Crime ( 1 ) rates are notoriously difficult to measure and we can argue at length about whether or not crime is rising, falling or staying the same. In this paper it is accepted that in general rates of crime rose throughout a large part of the last century in most of the advanced western democracies – Europe, the USA, Australia and so on. Much of this rise, as has been argued elsewhere, was due to the increase in the availability of desirable goods and the changes in social organisation that facilitated theft, burglary and other property crime (Felson and Clarke, 1998; Felson, 2002). As illustration Figure 1 below shows the rise in crime per 1,000 population in England and Wales from 1918-1993. Along with the rise in crime we saw a rise in the prison populations. In the UK, for example, the prison population rose by 2.5% per annum from Figure 1: Crime rate per 1,000 population, England and Wales – 1918 -1993 ( 8 ) Although this paper discusses crime the discussion applies equally to disorder and anti-social behaviour, organised crime and terrorism. 123
