Question1 If your interviewee/program is law enforcement–related, do you believe that what they do is more community policing or problem-solving policing? Why?
Ans1. Yes, I do believe that law enforcement is more community policing rather

I think community policing is a form of authority that brings police as well as citizens together as one unit in order to stop crimes and resolve issues in the neighbourhood. By the virtue of community policing there is a strong focus on preventing the crime to happen. In this form citizen are given tremendous amount of control over the quality of life in their community. Essentially community policing implies that the police becomes the part of the society as well as neighbourhood. Therefore, this helps the police to better assess the requirement of the residents as well as embark a strong relationship with the community.

Indeed, restorative justice forms a strong foundation of criminal justice that focuses on rehabilitation of offenders by incorporating reconciliations programs as well as community service at large.
Question4 Does this person/program focus more on crime control or due process? Why?
Ans4- Well, I think the present program of law enforcement focuses...
