Abstract
Changes related to postmodern trends outline, briefly, the way policing is being re-considered in South Africa. Testimony to this is the Cape Town City Improvement District Initiative which is represented as a case study of the nature of pluralised policing in contemporary South African communities. The types and amount of policing being undertaken and the relations between various policing entities is discussed as well as the implications of these types of networks in terms of various ideological and practical issues.
