This collection of cases from East Africa, contributed largely by
locally-based authors, explores the increasing security governance
phenomenon in the region: that is, the mix of state and non-state
actors, including private entities, volunteer auxiliaries,
homegrown vigilantes and gangs, and the relationship between police
and communities. Local dynamics brought by globalization,
liberalization, the new scramble for resource wealth, inequality,
and international terrorism are observed in detail, superimposed
upon the well-known development challenges, ethnopolitical divides,
and patterns of government and security provision which continue to
reflect their colonial past. This book raises both practical and
theoretical ethical dilemmas of the increasing fragmentation of
security functions within Uganda, Kenya, South Sudan, mainland
Tanzania, and Zanzibar. It is a vital contribution to the
"non-state," "plural policing" debates and is of both local and
global relevance.
