USSO 282 - Community Policing: A Comparative Study

Institution:

Case Western Reserve University

Subject:

Description:

Community Policing is becoming increasingly popular around the globe, as well as in the U.S., where it is only found in a few cities. The objective of this course is to expand the student's knowledge and understanding of the police systems in Japan and Sweden, since these nations are leaders in the successful introduction of community policing in their societies. It is instructive to go beyond one's political boundary in order to draw on different experiences in other countries. While it may not be possible to "adopt" some ideas from another country's police system, we might be able to benefit from "adapting" them to our own community needs. Prereq: Passing letter grade in a 100 level first year seminar in USFS, FSSO, FSCC, FSNA, FSSY or FSCS. Prereq or Coreq: FSTS 100.
