Under the model of community policing, the community and police cooperate in defining what constitute problems or policing needs; shaping forms of local policing by the police service; examining identified local problems alongside the police service; determining responses to identified issues; implementing responses to issues as participants in community policing; joint work with the police to address community-defined problems; and informing or supplementing the operational work of police officers. Problem-oriented policing is often encompassed by community policing, especially in the United States. Problem-oriented policing incorporates an explicit conception of the nature and role of modern policing. It consists of analyzing the factors and dynamics of situations and locales that consistently are associated with particular types of crimes. Based on the analysis, strategies are then devised to counter the factors that contribute to crime, thus reducing it. Intelligence-led policing uses modern information technology and modern methods to make police work more effective. This involves not only the use of computerized information management and data analysis, but also the use of staffing, organizational structure, and procedures that prove to achieve agency goals and objectives most efficiently and effectively. The forging of partnerships with other agencies involved in community safety issues is primary in this model. After discussing the features and applications of these three models, the chapter discusses how the three models relate to one another and their prospects for implementation in the United Kingdom. The author gives his reasons for believing that intelligence-led policing may be more likely to take hold quicker than problem-oriented or community policing. 79 references
