American Policing 2054: Advancing Community Policing over the Next 30 Years

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of its establishment, the COPS Office invited community members and leaders in law enforcement, public safety research, and civil rights to contemplate the next 30 years in American policing. This publication collects essays by a variety of contributors from all ranks of law enforcement as well as researchers and civic and civil rights leaders, all of whom touch on one or more principles of community policing—organizational change, problem solving, or partnerships—and present varied but ultimately optimistic predictions for the future.
