Download or read book Policing and the Politics of Order-Making written by Peter Albrecht and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-30 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology explores the political nature of making order through policing activities in densely populated spaces across Africa, Asia and Latin America. Based on ethnographic research, the chapters analyze this complex with respect to marginalized young men in Haiti, community policing members and national politicians in Swaziland as well as other individual and collective actors engaged in policing and politics in Indonesia, Swaziland, Ghana, South Africa, Mexico, Bolivia, Haiti and Sierra Leone. What these contexts have in common is a plurality of order-making practices. Not one institution monopolizes the means of violence or a de facto sovereign position to do so. A number of interests are played out simultaneously, entailing re-negotiations over the very definition of what ‘order’ is. How and by whom a particular order is enforced is contested, at times violently so, and is therefore inherently political. In the existing literature on weak states, legal pluralism and policing in the Global South it is seldom made explicit that making order is a route to power and positions of political decision-making. It is this gap in the literature that this anthology fills, as it analyses the politics at stake in processes of order-making.

Download or read book Corruption, harassment and injustice. Unlawful conduct of the Nigerian police towards civilians written by Odey Robert and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polemic Paper from the year 2017 in the subject Sociology - Law and Delinquency, grade: A.1, , language: English, abstract: It is quite regrettable that police personnel had for long dropped their core duties for the unusual. Corruption is synonymous with them. Civilians beget undue intimidation, harassment, extortion, injustice and jungle justice, molestation, wanton killing and all sorts of plagues from the police. The police have become irresponsible, extremely corrupt and a nuisance. They treat the poor differently from the rich. What is quite most shocking is the fact that all bids to sanitise the Nigerian Police Force have been futile. This makes one wonder whether the personnel have become above the law, or whether there are no practical measures to address the scourging issues from the police to civilians as well as the society as a whole. These and more have been attested by several studies, scholars and our respondents. Worried by the above issues, which constitute plagues to civilians and the society at a large, this paper rises to examine the plagues, and rouse the attention of the government, police authorities and all to halt these rising issues. It calls on the government and police authorities in particular to permanently check these issues through efficacious and operational legislations against any unethical and unprofessional acts of police personnel, sparing no defaulters. It also recommends that the Police Acts should be reviewed. The conflict theory of crime and the neo-Marxist political economy approach ground the study. The study concludes that police plagues are on the increase because the excesses of police personnel are yet to be checked appropriately and duly. The non-participant observation and intuition are the primary sources employed, while textual materials like journals, textbooks, monographs, serials, newspapers, magazines and the internet constitute the secondary sources.

This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Organisation and administration - Public safety and order, grade: 3,75, Covenant University, language: English, abstract: This study examined the prominent role played by the Nigeria Police in the security of lives and properties, and how their actions or inactions influence the development of the society. Its primary focus is on the fact that security is the major determinant of the development of any society. It also critically examined the role of the Nigeria Police in protecting the security image of the Country. It ramified the concepts of national security and national development, how they are intertwined and linked them to the Nigerian society. This study employed secondary data as books journals, textbooks, newspapers and magazines were consulted. The study observed the causes of the ineffectiveness of the Nigeria police, it evaluated the issues raised and concluded that in curbing the menace of insecurity, a pro-active reaction of the generality of the Nigerians and not the Nigeria Police or government alone, would go a long way in creating a more conducive environment for national development to thrive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author is a lecturer in history at Obafemi Awolowo University, Nigeria. While there has been much scholarly study of the Nigeria Police Force controlled by the Federal Government, this is the first comprehensive study of the origins, development, organisation, role and demise of the Native Authority/Local Government Police Forces in Nigeria. It clarifies many of the grey areas about their history and essence, and informs the current debate about who should own and control the police in a federal state. From early in colonial times the armed Nigeria Police Force operated nationally; whilst the Native Authority/Local Government Police Forces also operated in the Northern and Western Regions. They were abolished on the advent of military rule in 1966. The author believes that the principle of federalism should govern the owning and control of the police in a democratic, federal nation. But crucially he illustrates how ignorance of the true history of the local police forces has clouded the debate about the desirability, or otherwise, of liberalising the control of the police in a democratic, federal state like Nigeria in the 21st century.

Download or read book Authoritarian Police in Democracy written by Yanilda María González and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-12 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In countries around the world, from the United States to the Philippines to Chile, police forces are at the center of social unrest and debates about democracy and rule of law. This book examines the persistence of authoritarian policing in Latin America to explain why police violence and malfeasance remain pervasive decades after democratization. It also examines the conditions under which reform can occur. Drawing on rich comparative analysis and evidence from Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia, the book opens up the 'black box' of police bureaucracies to show how police forces exert power and cultivate relationships with politicians, as well as how social inequality impedes change. González shows that authoritarian policing persists not in spite of democracy but in part because of democratic processes and public demand. When societal preferences over the distribution of security and coercion are fragmented along existing social cleavages, politicians possess few incentives to enact reform.

This book was released on 2023-05-23 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Law - Criminal process, Criminology, Law Enforcement, grade: 4.35, Ahmadu Bello University, course: Masters in Law and Criminal Justice, language: English, abstract: The inability of the Nigerian Police to control the increasing wave of crime has led to the proliferation of community policing in many parts of the country. Thus, this thesis was designed to examine the effects of community policing on crime prevention in Nigeria, with a focus on the Jos South local government area of Plateau State, Nigeria. In this study, four research objectives were derived and four research questions were asked. The target population was the youth, stakeholders and law enforcement agents in Jos South Local Government Area. Data was obtained through the quantitative method (questionnaires), as a cluster sampling technique was adopted in the selection of respondents. 250 respondents were sampled through descriptive survey design. The research was answered using mean and standard deviation analysis (statistical package for social sciences SPSS).
