  • The Making of the Orderly City: New York Since the 1980S
    JUHXXX10.1177/0096144217705459Journal of Urban HistoryChronopoulos 705459research-article2017 Article Journal of Urban History 1 –32 The Making of the Orderly City: © The Author(s) 2017 Reprints and permissions: New York since the 1980s sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav https://doi.org/10.1177/0096144217705459DOI: 10.1177/0096144217705459 journals.sagepub.com/home/juh Themis Chronopoulos1 Abstract This article advances the concept of the orderly city, which has structural qualities and as a vision has dominated ideas about law and order in New York since the 1980s. The realization of the orderly city depended on the successful implementation of broken windows policing. This implementation required considerable reforms in the criminal justice system and the provision of substantial financial resources. Even then, without a considerable decline in serious crime rates, the city government would be unable to justify a war against minor infractions. The crime decline that occurred in the 1990s allowed the city government to equate the safe city with the orderly city. Moreover, as the economy of New York improved, the orderly city was promoted as a precondition of affluence. This article shows how these correlations are questionable and how the orderly city is based on morally and legally questionable actions such as racial profiling. Keywords orderly city, broken windows, quality-of-life, stop-and-frisk, police, New York In 2001, Steven Malanga of the conservative Manhattan Institute wrote an op-ed for the New York Post in which he linked New York City’s improved economic fortunes with the elimination of crime and disorder. Malanga’s claim represents a standard narrative shared by the mass media, the business sector, and many public policy makers around the world.

  • Classified Information the Newsletter of the Lloyd Sealy Library Fall 2015
    lloyd sealy library Classified Information The Newsletter of the Lloyd Sealy Library Fall 2015 From the Desk of the Chief Librarian Law codes, both penal and civil, rarely make for exciting reading. Just think of spending a pleasant evening brows- ing through the over 13,000-page Internal Revenue Service regulations (Title 26 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations). In France, however, which perhaps is more bureaucratic than the United States, the artist Joseph Hé- mard (1880-1961), a well-known French book illustrator, decided to satirize a number of French statutes through his amusing, mildly erotic drawings. In his work, Hémard used the pochoir (stencil) technique, which is a hand-col- ored illustration process that began in the 15th century for playing cards and the occasional woodcut. Having fallen out of use for centuries, the French revived the technique in the late 19th century. The handwork that produces the brilliantly colored illustrations is very costly and rarely used in the book printing process. The Sealy Library was fortunate to obtain two rare edi- tions of these works: Code Pénal (late 1920s) and Code Civil: Livre Premier, Des Personnes.... (1925). The latter pokes fun at a number of laws including divorce, pater- nity, adoption, and paternal authority (e.g., Article 371), which states, “The infant at any age must honor and re- spect his mother and father.” Article 378 mandates that the father alone exercises authority over the child during the marriage and until the child reaches his or her major- ity (18 years). The illustrations comically make such regu- lations clear and accessible to the reader.

  • The NYPD: the Nation’S Largest Police Department As a Study in Public Information
    Public Relations Journal Vol. 5, No. 2, Spring 2011 ISSN 1942-4604 © 2011 Public Relations Society of America The NYPD: The Nation’s Largest Police Department as a Study in Public Information Ashleigh Blair Egan, M.S. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) is the largest police department in the United States, with 32,284 officers as of 2009, and serving the combined populations of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. As with many police departments in major cities, the public is most often exposed to their activities via media coverage. This media attention also appears most often in conjunction with high profile crimes or scandals. In analyzing communication with the media, this paper will focus attention on coverage in The New York Times, which is the largest local metropolitan newspaper in the United States, with a daily circulation of 928,000, and has been published in New York City since its founding in 1851. The newspaper article analysis is supplemented by interviews with individuals with unique perspectives on communication techniques of the NYPD. These individuals include NYPD Detective Cheryl Crispin, a member of the Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Public Information, Professor Dorothy M. Schulz, Ph.D. of New York-based John Jay College of Criminal Justice and former Newsday police columnist and author Leonard Levitt. Being a large public service department, the public communication of the NYPD differs from that of a typical organization or a smaller public service department. By reviewing the existing models of public relations and examining the communication of four major NYPD cases from the last four decades, this paper examines the models of communication that have been utilized by the NYPD in the past, and discusses a public information hybrid model that could be effective in their future communication.
