Other stuff I’ve seen also gets into this idea of collective safety (Jane Jacobs’ “The Death and Life of Great American Cities” & its “eyes on the street” concept comes to mind.) The whole idea of it gives a pretty substantial argument for crime prevention outside of formal power roles of the state.

I’m so old I remember Jane Jacobs saying one of the best ways to combat crime was eyes on the street. Pretty sure people sitting outside a little corner coffee shop sipping and talking qualifies as eyes on the street.

The Jane Jacobs that I like is when she looks at what is working in a city with her own eyes and describes how and why it is working. Instead of using appeals to authority or theory.
