Community policing has been a buzzword in Anglo-American policing for the last two decades, somewhat vague in its definition but generally considered to be a good thing. In the UK the notion of ...community policing conveys a consensual policing style, offering an alternative to past public order and crimefighting styles. In the US community policing represents the dominant ideology of policing as reflected in a myriad of urban schemes and funding practices, the new orthodoxy in North American policing policy-making, strategies and tactic. But it has also become a massive export to non-western societies where it has been adopted in many countries, in the face of scant evidence of its appropriateness in very different contexts and surroundings.
critical analysis of concept of community policing worldwide
assesses evidence for its effectiveness, especially in the USA and UK
highlights often inappropriate export of community policing models to failed and transitional societies.
Contemporary intellectuals have rushed to embrace the concept of *#8220;community.” What does this tell us about American political thought? Why are intellectuals uneasy with modern liberal ...individualism and its institutional policy results? Why is political intellectual discourse dominated today by complaint?In The Dance with Community Robert Booth Fowler reflects upon these and related questions. “My goal,” he writes, “is to present contemporary political thought about community for what it is—a conversation interactive, spirited, and sometimes tough.”There have been many interpretations of the muchdiscussed decline in community spirit. Rather than offer another, Fowler steps back to look at the debate itself. He examines from the perspective of an intellectual historian the attention to community in current American political thought and explores the setting of that attention.He also identifies five alternative models of community integral to the current debates and sketches a clear image of each—its relationship to others, the logic of its appeal, and its emphases and problems. In each instance he places the model into the larger conversation over alternative communities and the value of community itself.

Doma in prav tako na tujem močno odmeva včerajšnja seja Predsedstva Jugoslavije, ki, tako kaže, pomeni pravi začetek konca dobrih 70 let stare federacije. Francoska agencija France press poroča, da je bila včerajšnja seja, njen potek in konec popoln polom, medtem ko Reuters meni, da so upi za preživetje Jugoslavije vse bolj bledi in da so jo po 45 letni komunistični vladavini na rob ločitvi prignala huda nacionalna trenja. Ob takšnih dogodkih in komentarjih nanje je zelo nehvaležno napovedovati, kakšen bo naš položaj v prihodnji Evropi.- Information:- Jurij Gustinčič (political analyst) commentating on the subject regarding Europe and us: what will be the situation for Yugoslavia in future Europe?- Original language summary:

V svojih digitalnih manifestacijah je mesto spletna skupnost, virtualno mesto ter kiberprostor v računalniških igrah, virtualni realnosti, računalniških vizualizacijah, digitalnem filmu idr. ...Predstavitve urbanega okolja v novih medijih povratno vplivajo na fizični prostor mesta, ki s svojimi elektronskimi podaljški vse bolj postaja hibridni prostor.
Reševanje konfliktov v skupnosti (REKOS) je ime za metodo, načela ter proces dela določene skupine ljudi, ki se zbere s ciljem angažiranja svojih sposobnosti za reševanje konfliktov. Osnovni pristop ...in način dela, ki je v uporabi v metodi REKOS, se nanaša na nenasilne alternative siceršnjim metodam reševanja konfliktov. V prispevku sta predstavljeni metoda dela in opis izkušnje izvedbe delavnice po tej metodi v domačem okolju.
Kot odgovor na urbano krizo velikih mest nastajajo na različnih koncih sveta nove oblike naselij, sestavljene iz trajnostno usmerjenih skupnosti. Taka naselja se med seboj precej razlikujejo, ...predvsem glede na deželo, v kateri nastajajo. Vendar imajo kljub temu značilne skupne lastnosti, kot so humano merilo in socialna povezanost skupnosti, vključevanje članov pri upravljanju naselja, uveljavljanje novih družbenih vrednot in sonaravno usmerjanje aktivnosti. Naselja so se razvila pod vplivom razvoja informacijskih in komunikacijskih tehnologij in pomenijo uvajanje novega načina življenja in dela.
