BARROSO-GONZALEZ, Jorge Luis. The work of the chief of the police sector in the Cuban social-community environment. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2013, vol.55, n.3, pp.351-367. ISSN 1794-3108.

The subject dealing with the current mixture of the Police preventive and repressive roles is approached as a symbiosis that has been taking place as the conception of the police agency evolves not only as an agent of confrontation of socially deviated and criminal conducts but also as a preventive piece in the social and community environments where many of those criminal and socially deviated modalities originate and so hardly aff ect citizens in the first place and the State at large. Community Police becomes an investigation referent, which helps analyze through methods involving bibliographical review and document analysis the figure of the Chief of the Police Sector in Cuba and how from its very conception it has shown both successes, failures, and areas for improvement.

Palabras clave : Social role of the Police; prevention; crime/delinquency; police services to the community; Cuba.
