    Law enforcement intelligence in Uganda
    (Routledge, 2024) Muchwa, Asiimwe Solomon
    This chapter examines law enforcement intelligence in Uganda. It starts with the premise that law enforcement intelligence is vital for the police to be effective and efficient in keeping law and order, but in Uganda, it is rather weak and not very obvious. The chapter presents a conceptual and analytic framework for law enforcement, disorder, and insecurity in Uganda. Thereafter, it examines and explains the challenges facing law enforcement intelligence in Uganda. It argues that the lack of clarity emanates from the conflated nature of the intelligence services in the country. This works against the police's ability to effectively deal with existing and future threats to law and order. The chapter also argues that the competing mandates of the intelligence providers in the country are the prime challenge, among others. It uses a qualitative methodology that combines historical/archival review and a combination of primary and secondary research into Ugandan intelligence services.
