TY - JOUR AU - Gary Cordner PY - 2020/12/01 Y2 - 2024/03/29 TI - A Practical Approach to Evidence-Based Policing JF - European Law Enforcement Research Bulletin JA - EULERB VL - 0 IS - 20 SE - Articles DO - UR - http://bulletin.cepol.europa.eu/index.php/bulletin/article/view/442 AB - Evidence-based policing remains misunderstood and under-appreciated. This article clarifies what it is, emphasizing its value in informing police practices in conjunction with experience, judgment, and craft knowledge. It also argues for a broad framework simply because policing has a broad mission. In other words, evidence-based policing is more than evidence-based crime control. Data, analysis, and the other tools of science can help police increase their effectiveness across the multiple bottom lines of policing. ER -
