Concerns about dramatic increases in violent crime beginning in the late Sixties and accelerating into the 1980s led to the "War on Drugs" and the "War on Crime" that included implementation of more punitive policies and dramatic increases in incarceration and community supervision. More recent reform efforts have focused on strategies to reduce the negative impacts of policing, the disparate impacts of pretrial practices, and better strategies for reducing criminal behavior. Renewed interest in strategies and interventions to reduce criminal behavior has coincided with a focus on identifying "what works." Recent increases in violence have shifted the national dialog from a focus on progressive reforms to reduce reliance on punitive measures and the disparate impact of the legal system on some groups to a focus on increased investment in "tough on crime" criminal justice approaches. This essay offers some reflections on the "Waged Wars" and the efforts to identify "What Works" based on nearly 40 years of work evaluating criminal justice reform efforts.
