The Consequences of Change for Neighborhood Institutions and Social Control

Thu, Nov 16, 12:30 to 1:50pm, Marriott, Grand Ballroom Salon J, 5th Floor

Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel

Abstract

The papers in this panel explore the question of how changes in neighborhoods impact various institutions in those neighborhoods and consequently levels of crime. The institutions studied range from voluntary organizations to the police. The studies also ask whether this change has consequences for the level of social control these neighborhoods can muster. One form of change that is of concern is racial change, and the spatial distribution of that racial change.
