Most major cities are going the way of the UK and using CCTV's for facial recognition and crime alerts. Detroit for example has a MASSIVE center for crime monitoring with camera's of the entire city. It's like the bat lair. It's a proven strategy that works.

That's not really a society I want to live in, thanks.

Do you know of research around on what works for what situations?

Many dystopian strategies will work, but what other problems do they create? Hard to be the political opposition under 1984-level monitoring.
