Racial Profiling as DCTM “Just smart law enforcement” or “just crazy”? Proponents are right that it will immediately increase likelihood of detection (though low base-rate event) Opponents are right that it will likely produce substitution effects over time
Studies of DCTM Landes 1978: metal detectors reduce airplane hijacking Cauley and Im 1988: metal detectors increase other types of terrorist attacks Enders and Sandler 1993: metal detectors increase assassinations and hostage-taking events; retaliatory strikes like Libya 1986 cause intertemporal substitition; fortification of embassies produces substitution toward assassinations. Dugan, LAFree and Piquero 2005: not looking at substitution, but finds RAT; contagion; but no effect on terrorism-related hijacking attempts.
Key Issue: Substitution Effects • Substitution of non-profiled offenders for profiled offenders This raises issue of comparative elasticities. • Substitution of type of attacks toward those that are less susceptible to RP detection
