Frank, James su: Interorganizational relations Police Law enforcement Drug control Ohio United States sug: subj: Ohio United States Interorganizational relations Police Law enforcement Drug control ab: In the past decade, municipal police organizations have devoted significant resources toward drug enforcement. One popular strategy in addressing the American drug problem is the formulation of multijurisdictional drug task forces. Despite their popularity, the impact of these cooperative ventures on law enforcement agencies has not been adequately evaluated.

Results suggest that task force membership impacts perceptions, but does not appear to influence objective measures of drug enforcement outputs.
