Uneasy peace
Book • 2018
In 'Uneasy Peace', Patrick Sharkey explores the significant drop in violent crime in American cities from the late 1990s to the mid-2010s.
He discusses how this decline has transformed urban life, improving safety and opportunities for disadvantaged communities, but also highlights the costs of aggressive policing and mass incarceration.
Sharkey proposes innovative approaches to sustain these gains while addressing urban inequality.
