Abstract
In Part 1 of this In Brief series we argued that while
growing concerns with crime and lawlessness have led
the Autonomous Bougainville Government (ABG) and
other leaders to call for tougher policing and justice
responses, there remains a critical need for continuing
peacebuilding efforts.
In Part 2 we discuss the ABG’s stated desire to
develop truly autochthonous community and custombased policing, justice and security post-conflict. We
contrast this intent with what has actually happened,
particularly in terms of policing, and what is being
planned as part of a new local security and governance
approach following the referendum in 2019.
