This book argues that strengthening policing, and the rule of law
is pivotal to promoting human rights, equity, access to justice and
accountability in sub-Saharan Africa. Through a multidisciplinary
approach, this book considers the principles of accountability,
just laws, open government, and accessible and impartial dispute
resolution, in relation to key institutions that deliver and
promote the rule of law in selected countries in sub-Saharan
Africa. Chapters examine a range of topics including police abuse
of power and the use of force, police-citizen relations, judicial
corruption, human rights abuse, brutality in the hands of armed
forces, and combating arms proliferation. Drawing upon key
institutions that deliver and promote the rule of law in
sub-Saharan African countries including, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya,
Madagascar, Nigeria, Rwanda, and South Africa, the contributors
argue that strengthening policing, security and the rule of law is
pivotal to promoting human rights, equity, access to justice and
accountability. As scholars from this geographical region, the
contributing authors present current realities and first-hand
accounts of the challenges in this context. This book will be of
interest to scholars of African studies, criminology and criminal
justice, police studies, international law practice, transitional
justice, international development, and political science.
