POLICE Commissioner-General Augustine Chihuri, has written a book on the history of policing in Zimbabwe.
The book is a partial fulfillment to a doctorate degree he graduated with at the Chinhoyi University of Technology (CUT) affiliated Mt Carmel Institute of Business intelligence on Saturday.
Chihuri was one of the three PHD Philosophy students who graduated at the institute whose degree and diploma programs are administered by CUT.
PHD students are allowed to write well researched books as their research theses.
In his citation soon after receiving the doctorate certificate, Chihuri said the book will be launched on September 25, when its title will also be announced.
He said the book traces the history of policing in Zimbabwe in three epochs namely pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial Zimbabwe.
"The book examines how policing was done in Zimbabwe before colonialism and tackles the transitions that took place during colonialism and after colonialism," he said.
"The book therefore is in three parts. The first part addresses whether there was any policing in pre-colonial Zimbabwe and explores the forms of policing and what happened when one had broken the law as well as how policing was conducted.
The second part looks at the conduct of the Rhodesian police force, the British South African Police and how it operated during the colonial era.
The third part tackles the shifting dynamics of post-independent Zimbabwe and the new demands of policing since 1980 to date," he said.
He said the book has a total of 40 chapters.
45 other students, most of who were drawn from the security sector, were awarded graduate diplomas in Business Intelligence.
Mt Carmel Institute Principal, Professor Mufaro Gunduza, said the institute's main thrust was to equip Zimbabwean citizens with business intelligence skills so that they would be able to stimulate the economy.
"The institute believes that this country needs business intelligence. All other programs have failed. For the economy to tick, we need business intelligence, so that is out thrust at Mt Carmel," he said.
"We have certificate, diploma and degree programs. These are assessed both locally and internationally. The institute is highly affiliated.
We are also affiliated to the International School of Management in Namibia and Cambridge as well as Aspin Institute for Business Education in New York.
The reasons for this is that global in business education, there are so many dynamics and you need to keep with the latest trends," he added.
Gunduza said doctorate grandaunts had studied "with our international affiliates, but because they are Zimbabweans, we as a local representative, we have been given the powers to cap them".
