- catalog abstract "The Governmental Responses to Crime Project was initiated in October 1978, as a result of the rising crime rate in the United States and the wide variety of programs seeking to contain it. The project investigated the growth of crime and the ways in which local governments responded to crime during the period from 1948 to 1978 by analyzing policy responses to the rise in crime in 10 American cities: Atlanta, Boston, Houston, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Newark, Oakland, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and San Jose. The major areas of research included the nature of the rise in crime in the U.S., attentiveness to crime, connections between structures and patterns of urban governments and their responses to crime, and urban communities' principal responses to crime. This data collection is contained in 5 parts: Baseline, Ten City, Local Ordinances, State Laws, and Media Data. There are eighteen files: five contain SPSS control statements and the remaining thirteen files contain the corresponding data. The baseline data file contains information on all cities having a population of 50,000 or more in 1950, 1960, 1970, or 1975. These data constitute a baseline with which the 10 cities can be compared to other cities in the United States. The ten city file contains information on changes in the activities, focus, and resources of local police departments, courts, prosecutorial systems, and correctional institutions in the 10 cities named above. The city ordinance and state law files contain data on public policy responses by examination of changes in ordinances and laws over time. The media data files examine attentiveness to crime and criminal justice issues as covered in the news media.".
