Abstract Details

2007, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Education : Criminal Justice.
Theory and research in the area of environmental criminology have suggested that people who own or manage particular locations can influence crime at these places. This dissertation extends our understanding of the role of place managers in two ways. First, a specific definition of place management is offered. Second, the relationships between the elements of this definition are explicated in a proposed theory of place management in bars. Data collected from bars in Cincinnati, Ohio are used to examine the plausibility of the theory. Findings indicate a strong relationship between place management practices and levels of crime and disorder at these locations. The study concludes with the proposal of a general theory of place management and suggestions for future research and theoretical development.
