The current crisis in policing can be traced to failures of reform.Sparrow surely is right to condemn policing directed only at crime rates rather than community satisfaction.?The New York Times Book ReviewIn the past two years, America has witnessed incendiary milestones in the poor relations between police and the African-American community: Ferguson, Baltimore, and more recently Baton Rouge, St. Paul, and Dallas.Malcolm Sparrow, who teaches at Harvard Kennedy School of Government and is a former British police detective, argues that other factors in the development of police theory and practice over the last twenty-five years have also played a major role in contributing to these tragedies and to a great many other cases involving excessive police force and community alienation.Sparrow shows how the core ideas of community and problem-solving policing have failed to thrive.
