Restructuring Education
American education is undergoing rapid change. Concern over poor student performance, the ability and motivation of teachers, and the inefficiency of school bureaucracy have led to numerous recommendations for changing the structure of American education. These vary from small changes in the current structure to wholesale privatization of public schools. The contributions in this book discuss a wide range of proposals, including greater school ch…
Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Commercial Burglaries
The factors that are crucial in predicting burglary of commercial establishments are evaluated. Burglars are rational in their choice of target, in that they consider both the revenue generated by the burglary and the chances of being apprehended. Location of the target plays a major role; establishments located within three blocks of heavily travelled thoroughfares are less vulnerable to burglary than those located further away. The wealthier th…
Burglar and Fire Alarms
The alarm industry has been estimated at 8-11 billion dollars in 1993. There are approximately 17 million alarms installed nationwide. The annual growth of installations has been 8 percent over the last five years. At the same time, the number of false activations per system is 1.1 to 1.4 per year, with 20 to 30 percent of police manpower devoted to false activations. 94-98 percent of all activations are false. Indeed, false activations pose a se…
Burglar alarms and the choice behavior of burglars
Using the Delphi process to analyze social policy implementation
A Von Thünen Model of Crime, Casinos and Property Values in New Jersey
Urban economic models suggest that, ceteris paribus, land values diminish with distance from a central business district (CBD) which 'produces' employment, income and other amenities. A new industry like casino gaming may have jobs and increased income associated with it. These amenities will induce an increase in property values. The size of that increase diminishes with distance from the city centre. The new industry may have the negative by-pr…
The Effects of Criminal Experience on the Incidence of Crime
A hypothesis has been analyzed that criminals learn by doing, that with experience criminals increase their activity so that with level outlays on police the incidence of crime may be increasing. This hypothesis is tested by statistical analysis of time series cross sectional data on crime levels, police outlays and various socioeconomic variables. The results confirm that "learning by doing"-accumulating criminal experience-increases criminal ac…

The Difference Between Short and Long Run Effects of Police Outlays on Crime
In the long run a positive relationship of police expenditurescrime is derived in models which explain criminal behavior In the short run, however, the statistical results point to the possible deterring effect of police expenditures. A theoretical model is constructed to explain the statistical difference of the short and long run effect of police outlays on crime. As police expenditures increase, crime level diminishes. As time elapses, crimina…

Interjurisdictional Criminal Mobility
The Attraction of Property Crimes to Suburban Localities
The economic analysis of crime is further developed by extending Becker's model of criminal behaviour to the spatial distribution of property crimes in Suburbia. The results suggest that where wealthier suburbs are located close to major urban areas they will be 'importers' of crime from the adjacent urban centres, regardless of their expenditure on police protection. In such cases the community tax base rather than police expenditure seems to be…
