Policing is crucial to how Africans experience the freedoms of
democracy and determines to a large degree the levels of economic
investment they will enjoy. Yet it is a neglected area of study.
Based on field research, this book reveals the surprising variety
of people involved in policing besides the state police. Indeed
many Africans are faced with a wide choice of public and private,
legal and illegal, effective and ineffective policing. Policing in
Africa is very much more than what the police do. It concerns the
activities of business interests, residential communities, cultural
groups, criminal organisations, local political figures and
governments. How people negotiate this 'multi-choice' of policing
options, and the implications of this for government and donor
security policy, is the subject of this book It covers policing in
all its forms in Sub-Saharan Africa, including two case studies of
Uganda and Sierra Leone.
