Beskrivelse

This book discusses a proposed police reform model to eliminate systemic racism which has tainted American police operations. The proposal includes a crime prevention driven model of policing and suggests the old arrest and incarceration driven model is a vestige of the system of racial segregation in the United States. The crime prevention driven model has enjoyed success in Japan. In 1988 Japan had 40,000 people in prison while the U.S. had 2 million. Japan's population was 120 million with the U.S. population at about 240 million at the time. Japan occupies a land space about the size of the U.S. State of California. Japan's crime rate is among the lowest in the world with a population half the the size of the U.S. in a small land space. The Japanese do not use their crimnal justice system to address public health issues like drug-alcohol abuse and addiction, or mental health issues. Basic police training in Japan is a two year program which prepares officers to play leading roles in the communties they serve. In the U.S., basic police training is about 6 months. Officers learn to shot, drive, investigate, make arrest, and the training racially bias them against Black's and other minority groups. Police Reform in the U.S. will require a major paradigm shift. The Reform will require a change of leadership, a unifying philosophy, a new training model and curriculum, and restructure of operational methods.
