Abstract

The chapter explains some ideas and concepts which will help ensure the handbook is understood by everyone reading it. It covers visions which Aboriginal communities have for their future; the circles of influence of a community; the harmful effects of crime; ways to remove desire, ability and opportunity from the crime equation; the individual's role in crime prevention; and rehabilitation and primary prevention.
