This is actually amazing. I'm a psychology major and I never heard about this before. This model is way better than half the social psychology ones out there.
Great Ted Talk Joel...keep up the great work !
Then why do certain suburbs that have only residential zoning have high crime? Particularly, the people in any of those neighborhoods are usually of a lower socioeconomic status despite the absence of anything other than homes and parks. How does the kaleidoscope fit in there without focusing on people?
Thank You ❤️
One of my all time favorites =)
well explained and informative!
thank you
Le nostre economie devono essere in grado idealmente di trasformare i conflitti e le guerre come la violenza e i crimini
Thank you for the information! Does anyone know where I can download the software?
Did you find the free software?
I'd like to know what is the difference between RTM and CPTED, since the later discuss exactly the same concepts and is a previously set of consolidated technics to prevent crime, designing the enviroment to supress the opportunities for crime. Are not you talking about old wine in new wineskins? I am not belittling the idea, but the RTM, as I saw it here, is a reaffirmation of what Crime Analysis as applied science and technics has been proposing for some years now. So I would like to know, again, what's new in RTM?
Exactly, just seems like organised surviellance to me. Maybe the focus on police maps makes it different?
RTM isn't an idea or theory such as CPTED. RTM is a program created to utilize CPTED by mapping out in GIS systems the physical crime attractors; gas stations, stores, movie theaters, parking lots, take out places, laundromats, etc. and giving it to the police to be able to see visually on a map, over laying crime data statistics from GIS with RTM showing that hey all the robberies happening also seem to be focused all around gas stations, lets focus on gas stations to prevent robberies.
@@Electragirl5 this RTM concept sounds laughable
his software isnt free anymore :(
An ad with no link to his software.
this guy for president
This is CPTED with a different name.
👍
This guy’s metaphors are the real crime.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
"Focus on the place, not people" it's like another way of saying that Lawmen shouldn't racially profile someone because they look like crooks.... Lawmen should focus on places not people
Places have people
@@dirtydead4144 like Mars?
Instead they target people based on whether they have a lot of friends or not
Gangstalkers are losers
I think kids,young generation and next generation must learn dharma,karma(good deeds),updesh from bhagwat gita and vedas(like vedic mathematics). Maybe, it can be done by teaching this in every school,college and campus. Because it teaches you what is life,how to behave, and beleiving that there someone greater than knowledge,greater than the science,greater than the universe who loves everyone,anyone fron anywhere that is so called god....... :) PEACE
