title = "Political economy and crime in Tang Village",
abstract = "Government policy can influence community development that impacts public security. In this chapter, several examples are cited. The government{\textquoteright}s abolition of the custody and repatriation regulations motivated rascals to cause trouble on the streets. The banning of motorcycles to reduce motorcycle robbery created a crime displacement effect. The Universiade held in Shenzhen in 2011 brought a makeover for Tang Village with an urban beautification campaign, and brought about law enforcement against high-risk personnel. The Red Armband Program was implemented to mobilize the public to prevent crime, which brought short-term benefits to the village. Finally, the building of a university town and a new science park beside Tang Village forced the relocation of two nearby neighborhoods and removed the crime hotspots on those sites.",
