Cope, Nina. March 2004. Intelligence Led Policing
or Policing Led Intelligence? British Journal of Criminology: pp.188-203.
Abstract: This paper explores the integration of volume crime analysis into
policing. Based on qualitative research in two police forces, the paper
outlines the importance of analysis for intelligence-led policing. It also
addresses police culture and the impact it has on perceptions of analysts
and their products. The paper argues that training and development for both
police officers and analysts is crucial to develop a productive working
relationship.
Dannels, David and Heather Smith. 2001. Implementation Challenges of
Intelligence Led Policing in a Quasi-Rural County. Journal of Crime &
Justice vol. 24, no. 2: pp. 103-12.
Abstract: The success of New York City's implementation of compstat and
the corresponding reduction of the violent crime rate has propelled intelligence-led
policing to the attention of criminal justice professionals. Few studies
have examined the success of compstat and specifically the emergence of
intelligence-led policing in the United States.
Gill, Peter. 2000. Rounding Up the Usual Suspects. Aldershot, UK: Ashgate.
Call Number: HV 8195.A3G57 2000
Abstract: Since 1993 police in the UK have been developing the idea of
'intelligence-led policing' and seeking to shift organizational practices
in order to attain their goals more effectively. Charting and explaining
the progress, or otherwise, of this shift is the central aim of this study.
While concerned mainly with developments in the UK, it seeks to compare
these with police intelligence structures in North America, specifically,
Canada and New York State.
Harman, Alan. March 2001. Canberra's Operation Dilute. Law & Order
: pp. 52-5.
Abstract: Operation Dilute in Canberra, Australia involved maximizing
opportunities to obtain the best evidence from burglary scenes and from
recovered stolen motor vehicles; improved follow up action with complainants
and establishment of a 12-person burglary/stolen vehicle strike team,
among other things. Operation Dilute was one of the first tests for the
new intelligence-led policing framework and the result was instant success.
Henry, Vincent E. and Douglas H. King. Spring 2004. Improving Emergency
Preparedness and Public-Safety Responses to Terrorism and Weapons of Mass
Destruction. Brief Treatment and Crisis Intervention: pp. 11-35. Notes:
(See staff member)
Abstract: This article, written from the perspective and based partially
on the experience of law enforcement and public health practitioners,
explores the very real public-safety threat posed by ‘terrorists'
use of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs). More specifically, it provides
an overview of various types of WMDs and their properties; outlines the
general policies, procedures, and protocols characterizing current police,
fire, emergency medical service, and other public-safety agency responses;
and illuminates potential gaps and lapses in current practice. Arguing
the need for a more focused, integrated, and holistic approach that involves
a broader array of personnel and resources from public-and private-sector
entities and that emphasizes preparedness and prevention, the article
concludes by describing a more effective strategic and operational process.
Based on the highly effective Compstat crime control management model,
this process involves the timely and accurate analysis of terrorist intelligence,
effective tactical and strategic responses to various types of WMD events,
rapid deployment of necessary personnel and resources, and relentless
follow-up to ensure a more effective and integrated response to future
WMD events.

Association of Law Enforcement Intelligence and Analysts, Inc. (IALEIA).
Call Number: HV 7936.I57I68 1997
Abstract: The articles in this booklet consider the question of intelligence-led
policing from a number of different perspectives. Some document the manner
in which it has been successfully implemented in particular agencies while
others reflect upon its applicability to certain situations. Still others
consider its background and the factors that make it a practical policing
solution. Intelligence-led policing requires commitment. Police managers
must be prepared to stand away from traditional police philosophies and
methodologies; to believe that operations can stand and should be driven
by intelligence; to act rather than react. They must be prepared to have
faith in the intelligence process and in the judgments and recommendations
of their intelligence staff.

Innes, Martin, et al. January 2005. The Appliance of Science? The theory
and Practice of Crime Intelligence Analysis. British Journal of Criminology:
pp. 39-57.
Abstract: Intelligence analysis has emerged as an important component
of contemporary policing strategies. Drawing upon qualitative data and
a perspective informed by some concepts associated with the sociology
of scientific knowledge, this paper provides an epistemologically oriented
critique of some of the key techniques associated with crime analysis.
Data presented suggest that crime analysis: is used in line with traditional
modes of policing, is a way of claiming 'scientific objectivity' for police
actions; and is largely shaped by police perspectives on data. It is argued
that the sense of enhanced objectivity often attributed to the products
of 'intelligence work' is frequently overstated.

and Federal Levels. Washington, DC: U.S. Department of Justice. Call Number:
HV 7936.I57C75 2002
Abstract: This proposed national plan for intelligence-led policing at
the local, State and Federal levels is based on recommendations from the
Criminal Intelligence Sharing Summit held in Alexandria, VA, March 7-8,
2002. Participants discussed the capacities for and barriers to intelligence
sharing, the standards and guidelines that direct intelligence sharing,
technology and training related to intelligence sharing, and important
legal and civil rights that must guide all criminal intelligence gathering
and sharing processes.

Elements. Lawrenceville, NJ: L.E.I.U. and IALEIA. Call Number: HV 8141.R44
2000
Abstract: The basics of intelligence are collecting, collating, evaluating,
analyzing, and disseminating data. The proper completion of these steps
ensures that the data used are managed appropriately and within the legal
constraints regarding privacy and the rights of all citizens. Each law
enforcement agency with an intelligence function should have this handbook
on site for their staff to access when intelligence questions arise.
Ratcliffe, J. H. and M.J. McCullagh. Spring 2001. Chasing Ghosts? Police
Perception of High Crime Areas. British Journal of Criminology: pp. 330-41.
Abstract: In recent years there has been a move within police services
towards a proactive and intelligence-led style of policing. This has coincided
with, a recognition of the value of local policing solutions and the importance
of the intelligence function at the local area command level.
Ratcliffe, Jerry H. 2004. Crime Mapping and the Training Needs of Law
Enforcement. European Journal on Criminal Policy and Research v. 10, no.
1: pp: 65-83. Notes: Available full-text on Infotrac
Abstract: Explores some of the more recent developments within crime mapping
and the broader application of geographical information technology within
law enforcement. The information technology (IT0 revolution and the reduction
in computing costs since the 1980s has brought a range of analytical tools
within the budgets of most police services, and one of the most significant
changes has been in the way that spatial data are handled. Law enforcement
has strong geographic currents at all levels of the organisation, and
this paper examines three applications of geographical information systems
(GIS) within policing: hotspot mapping, Compstat, and geographic profiling.
The paper concludes by discussing the future training needs using a simple
model of intelligence-led crime reduction. This model suggests that training
for managers to enable a greater understanding of the analyses presented
to them, and how to use mapping to further crime prevention and reduction,
may be as important as increasing the technical ability of crime analysts.
The challenge for the immediate future of crime reduction practice in
law enforcement is less to worry about the training of analysts, and more
to address the inability of law enforcement management to understand and
act on the crime analysis they are given.
Ratcliffe, Jerry H. January 2002. Intelligence-Led Policing and the Problems
of Turning Rhetoric into Practice. Policing and Society: pp. 53-66.
Abstract: Policing strategies, and the terminology that accompanies them,
can now be rapidly disseminated around the world. New tactics that are
seen to apparently work elsewhere are often demanded of local police before
any real evaluation has taken place. This paper looks at 'intelligence-led
policing' currently seen as one of the more positive contributions that
policing can make to crime prevention and reduction. In the context of
policing in Australia this paper suggests that local factors and recent
history may hinder the adoption of some strategies and the arrogation
of rhetoric may be easier than adopting the practices.
Ratcliffe, Jerry H., [ed.]. 2004. Strategic Thinking in Criminal Intelligence.
Annandale, NSW: Federation Press. Call Number: HV 7936.I57S87 2004
Abstract: The changing role for law enforcement has meant an increased
focus on how agencies use and share intelligence. Limited resources relative
to scale of threat have placed greater emphasis on securing the 'knowledge
edge' over adversaries. Despite the considerable progress that has been
made in refining arrangements for how criminal intelligence is managed
at the macro level, much is still required in the areas of product development,
training and education to ensure that good intelligence is produced and
critically, used. This book represents a valuable contribution to the
discussion on how this might best be done and provides an excellent reference
for the executive, practioner and student reader alike.
Shane, Jon. May 2004. Compstat Design. FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin:
pp. 12-9.
Abstract: The design and success of the Compstat model rests with the
commitment level of the leaders of the law enforcement agency. Law enforcement
officers must sponsor and champion Compstat to their employees. Also,
they must ensure that all administrative details are handled effectively
and efficiently to produce the most important aspect of the process: data
collection, analysis, and presentation.
Stevens, John. Intelligence-Led Policing. December 2001. [www.google.com].
Abstract: It will be the task for law enforcement in every country to
frustrate and disturb future terrorist activity. Now more than ever before,
intelligence is the key. It is the 'golden nugget' of the entire global
police operation and must be central to all that we do. Without accurate
intelligence the security of all nations will continue to be threatened.
Tilley, Nick and Jill Dando. Problem-Oriented Policing, Intelligence-Led
Policing and the National Intelligence Model. 2003. [www.jdl.ucl.ac.uk/publications/crime_science_series/problem-oriented
policing.php].
Abstract: British police services are being asked to embrace both intelligence-led
policing (ILP) and problem-oriented policing (POP). Are they different,
but compatible? If they are to coexist, in what ways can this best be
achieved? Specifically, can the National Intelligence Model effectively
bring the two together?
U.S. Department of Justice. Intelligence-Led Policing: The Integration
of Community Policing and Law Enforcement Intelligence. 2004. [www.cops.usdoj.gov/mime/open.pdf].
Abstract: A common concern expressed by police executives is that the
shift toward increased counterterrorism responsibilities may require a
shift of resources away from community policing. Instead, the question
should be how community policing and counterterrorism should be integrated.
As will be seen, there are more commonalities between the two than one
may intuitively expect. Indeed, new dimensions of law enforcement intelligence
and counterterrorism depend on strong community relationships. Crime will
continue to be a critical responsibility for the police as will the need
for community support. Moreover, with increased social tension as a result
of this terrorism environment, the need is even greater to maintain a
close, interactive dialogue between law enforcement and the community.
