WHY WAIT?
The author argues that crime prevention in South Africa is often stalled by a dichotomy between long-term social regeneration and short-term law enforcement. The paper proposes a third way: using municipal by-laws to target 'those with something to lose'—such as property owners and business licensees—to disrupt the unregulated environments that enable urban crime, rather than relying solely on the police to address deep-seated social inequalities.
