Crimes not covered in this report are environmental and economic crime, organized crime, traffic offenses, sexual offenses, drug and alcohol offenses, and offenses against the State. Information was obtained from a questionnaire sent to experts in criminal justice policy in every country in Europe and North America. Thirty countries provided some form of response. The most fruitful information source, however, was a literature search. Two international conferences also provided information for this report. The crime prevention measures discussed are categorized according to social crime prevention, situational crime prevention, and community crime prevention. The chapter on social crime prevention describes measures designed to mitigate the root causes of crime and the factors that cultivate dispositions for persons to commit crimes. Programs discussed focus on the family, the school, employment, health services, and urban planning. The chapter on situational crime prevention focuses on measures that reduce opportunities for offending. Topics include security measures that hinder offending, measures influencing the costs and benefits of offending, and multi-measure situational crime prevention. The third chapter describes community crime prevention measures in the areas of housing policy, community development, the root causes of crime, the socialization of youth, and police crime prevention. A fourth chapter discusses the planning, implementation, and evaluation of crime prevention. Appended supplementary information and 120 references
