EVALUATING SAFETY AND CRIME PREVENTION POLICIES IN EUROPE - Robert, Philippe (Red)
Originele nieuwprijs: € 39
KORTE INHOUD
Stated in very general terms, evaluating a policy means estimating its impact.
While the evaluation of safety and crime prevention policies is currently a widely

required for a real evaluation are the subject of serious controversy.
This is why a spectrum of countries where the expression ‘evaluation of crime

Reports have been presented by Sybille Smeets and Carrol Tange (Université
Libre de Bruxelles), Tim Hope (Keele University), Anne Wyvekens (Centre
d’études et de recherches de sciences administratives et politiques – CERSA
– CNRS and Université Panthéon-Assas) and Karin Wittebrood (Sociaal en
