Fear of Crime
|
|
Public opinion pools show that Americans view crime as one of the most serious problems of their society. Several studies have also shown that the amount of crime, especially violent crime, is frequently overestimated. Experts believe that this awareness and fear of crime is largely caused by the great attention it is given in newspapers and on TV, and also because violent crime is a popular theme for television series and films. Many Americans are therefore surprised to learn that, according to Interpol, the ‘general crime rate per 100,000 inhabitants’ for the US is significantly lower than that for several other western nations such as Sweden, New Zealand, or Denmark, and not much higher than those for West Germany, Austria, or England.
Nevertheless, among all crimes, murder makes the headlines, and there is no doubt that homicides continue to be a serious problem in America.
In the United States, as elsewhere, the causes of serious crime are hotly debated, and many reasons for it are suggested. Among these are unemployment, drug abuse, poverty, inadequate police enforcement, ineffective courts, racial discrimination, consumerism, television, and ‘a general decline in middle-class values.’ Surprisingly, a major study of crime in the US found that ‘ the number of poor people in a city is only marginally related to property or violent crime. In other words, American cities with a higher rate of unemployment and poverty to not necessarily also have a higher crime rate.

Crime in the USA
In the USA, as elsewhere, the cause of serious crime are hotly debated and many reasons for it are suggested. Among these are unemployment, drag-abuse, poverty, inadequate police enforcement, ineffective courts, racial discrimination, consumerism, television, and ‘a general decline in middle-class values’.
Surprisingly, a major study of crime in the USA carried out by North-Western University in 1982 found that ‘the number of poor people in a city is only marginally related to property or violent crime’. In other words, American cities with a higher rate of unemployment and poverty do not necessarily also have a higher crime rate.
Many experts are coming to believe that only grass-roots efforts to improve community life overall will have a lasting effect. Many communities across the nation have started their own campaigns against crime, encouraging their citizens to participate in crime-prevention programs and to report crimes. Several civil rights groups actively support such ‘self-help’ campaigns. In some neighborhoods, citizens participate in ‘neighborhood watch’ programs and organize groups to patrol the streets.
