This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Sociology - Law and Delinquency, grade: -, University of Ghana, Legon (School of Social Sciences), course: Long Essay, language: English, abstract: This study investigates crime in two socioeconomically distinctive localities in Accra, Cantonments and Jamestown. Over the years, scholars in the field of crime studies have attempted to ascertain a link between levels of criminal activities and socioeconomic phenomena such as poverty. Despite the fact that the Ghana police service (GPS) claim that crime rates have been declining steadily over the years, crime remains a major threat to the lives and property of people in Ghana considering the fact that the nation struggles with poverty, economic inequality, the ‘proliferation’ of illicit drugs, arms etc. This study also addresses target hardening and the critical role it plays in protecting many civilians from being victims of criminal activity in their homes. The main theoretical perspective of the study is the situational crime prevention theory. This theory aims at finding out reasons why certain crimes occur at particular locations. For instance, why a crime like armed robbery or theft is prevalent in Cantonments or why physical assault is prevalent in Jamestown. Using situational crime prevention as a guide, this study attempts investigate the reasons why certain crimes occur at particular locations in Cantonments and Jamestown. Today, in order to properly deal with crime, it is important to know which crimes are frequent at a particular location be it an upper class residential area or a lower class residential area. Due to this reason, crime mapping through the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) plays a very crucial role in identifying crime hotspots. By so doing, it aids the appropriate authorities in combating crime. Over the course of this study, property crimes such as armed robbery and burglary were found to be more prevalent in upper class residential areas like Cantonments whereas non-property crimes such as physical assault and murder are more prevalent in lower class settlements like Jamestown. It was also discovered that, highly sophisticated target hardening measures were more common in upper class residential areas like Cantonments. This study like the ‘Crime-poverty nexus’ studies by Owusu, Oteng-Ababio, et.al, (2016) recommends that crime prevention measures carried out by the police and other authorities must be place specific. This is because the unique socioeconomic circumstances of a locality determines the types of crime which are prevalent in that locality.

Book excerpt: Jan Beek’s book explores everyday police work in an African country and analyses how police officers, despite prevailing stereotypes about failed states and African police, produce stateness. Drawing on highly readable ethnographic descriptions, the book shows that Ghanaian police practices often involve the exchange of money (bribes), the use of violence and the influence of politicians. However, such informal practices allow police officers to deal with the inconsistent necessities and the social context of their work. Ultimately, Ghanaian police officers are also inspired by a bureaucratic ethos and their practices are guided by it. Stateness, the book argues, is a quality of organizations, gradually emerging out of such everyday encounters. Producing Stateness allows a close look at the realities of police work in Africa and provides surprising insights into the rationalities of policing and state bureaucracies everywhere.

Download or read book Christianity, Wealth, and Spiritual Power in Ghana written by Karen Lauterbach and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book centers around mid-level charismatic pastors in Ghana. Karen Lauterbach analyzes pastorship as a pathway to becoming small “big men” and achieving status, wealth, and power in the country. The volume investigates both the social processes of becoming a pastor and the spiritual dimensions of how power and wealth are conceptualized, achieved, and legitimized in the particular context of Asante in Ghana. Lauterbach integrates her analysis of charismatic Christianity with a historically informed examination of social mobility—how people in subordinate positions seek to join up with power. She explores how the ideas and experiences surrounding the achievement of wealth and performance of power are shaped and re-shaped. In this way, the book historicizes current expressions of charismatic Christianity in Ghana while also bringing the role of religion and belief to bear on our understanding of wealth and power as they function more broadly in African societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghana has pursued several programs to accelerate the growth of the economy. In 1995, the government presented “Ghana: Vision 2020,” aimed at making Ghana a middle-income country in 25 years. Vision 2020 focused on human development, economic growth, rural development, urban development, infrastructure development, and an enabling environment. It was followed by the Ghana Poverty Reduction Strategy. One of the main challenges to economic growth is the unemployment problem. The recent discoveries of oil and gas create tremendous opportunities for stimulating national development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on unprecedented access to the Ghanaian military barracks and inspired by the recent resurgence of coups in West Africa, Agyekum assesses why and how the Ghana Armed Forces were transformed from an organization that actively orchestrated coups into an institution that accepts the authority of the democratically elected civilian government. Focusing on the process of professionalization of the Ghanaian military, this ethnography based monograph examines both historical and contemporary themes, and assesses the shift in military personnel from ‘Buga Buga’ soldiers – uneducated, lower-class soldiers, human rights abusers – to a more ‘modern’ fighting force.
