| dc.description.abstract | The study explores relationships between crime and neighbourhood socio-economic characteristics in key Ghanaian cities – Accra, Kumasi, Sekondi-Takoradi and Tamale. Rapid urbanization in the context of massive sprawl of cities and overstretched services of the police and other state security agencies create opportunities for crime and insecurity. To address the multiple ways crime and class issues are inter-related, an integrated crime response is suggested, anchored within the existing decentralized development planning, management and administrative framework of Ghana. | en |
