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"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Police $z Africa, Sub-Saharan. 650 0 $a Law enforcement $z Africa, Sub-Saharan. 650 0 $a Rule of law $z Africa, Sub-Saharan. 650 7 $a Law enforcement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993931 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 650 7 $a Rule of law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01101218 651 7 $a Sub-Saharan Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239520 700 1 $a Akinlabi, Oluwagbenga Michael, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Policing and the rule of law in Sub-Saharan Africa $d London ; New York, NY : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2023 $z 9781003148395 $w (DLC) 2022016768 830 0 $a Routledge contemporary Africa series 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011451.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=51DFD8802E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
