    THEORIES OF

    COMPARATIVE POLICING
    Alertness to Crime Theory- as a
    nation develops, peoples alertness
    to crime is heightened that they
    report crime to police and demand
    the police to become more effective
    in solving crime problems.
     Economic or Migration theory- Crime
    everywhere is the result of unrestrained
    migration and overpopulation in urban
    areas such as ghettos and slum

     Opportunity Theory- Long with higher


    standards of living, victims become more
    careless of heir belongings and
    opportunities for committing crime
    multiply.
     Demographic Theory- Based on the
    event where a greater number of children
    are being born. As these baby booms
    grow up, delinquents subcultures develop
    out of adolescent identity crisis’

     Deprivation theory- Progress comes


    along with rising expectation, people at
    the bottom develop unrealistic
    expectations while people at the top don’t
    see themselves rising fast enough.
     Modernization Theory- sees the
    problem as society is becoming too
    complex.

     Theory of anomie and synomie-


    (the latter being referred to as to social
    cohesion on values) suggest that
    progressive lifestyle ad norms result in
    the disintegration of older norms that
    once help people together. (Anomie)
