A new study with evidence from New York City -- plus a "five-city social experiment" -- claims that there is no evidence to support the popular anti-crime theory.
"Bernard Harcourt, a University of Chicago law professor, is publishing this month a provocative new study that finds no evidence to support the popular theory that 'broken-windows' policing actually reduces crime, reports the University of Chicago Chronicle. Titled 'Broken Windows: New Evidence from New York City, and a Five-City Social Experiment,' the study is co-authored by Jens Ludwig, associate professor of public policy at Georgetown University. It appears in the latest issue of the University of Chicago Law Review. The
