| Item Description: | The book is a study of the investigation of the challenges encountered by the police and community in the effective implementation of community policing in Zambia. The study areas comprise of two police districts which reflect both urban and rural characteristics of Zambia and therefore portray a fair representation of community policing practices throughout the country. The introduction of community policing in 1995 was aimed at replacing the reactive or 'fire brigade' type of policing which was military-oriented and hence failed to curb the rising crime or improve police-community relations, with one (community policing) which is pro-active and aims at crime reduction and improvement of police-community relations. |
