방범용 CCTV의 범죄예방 효과분석을 통한 범죄예방정책의 방향

초록

This study tested the effects of crime prevention policy through installing CCTV utilizing multiple regression analysis comparing the areas with and without CCTV installation. The locus of this study is 27 patrol divisions where CCTV has been installed and operated as well as 24 patrol divisions where CCTV has not been installed or has been installed after December 2006. The result of regression analysis shows that with controlling other policy and environmental variables crime prevention policy using CCTV does not have a significant impact on decreasing the crime rates. However it should not be interpreted that CCTV itself does not have a positive impact on crime prevention. As the visibility range of CCTV is somewhat limited, if CCTVs are not installed without any blind spot in the area, criminals can commit a crime outside the visibility range of installed CCTV. Therefore only with CCTV crime prevention policy effects are not easy to achieve, so it should be linked with other policy tools.
