The art of fighting crime versus South Africa's 'new' direction

Applying the same logic and slightly adapting the above definitions, it can be argued that the fight against crime (or the war on crime) should also be developed as an art. Not only does it then imply that the South African government must have a proper policy in place to deal with crime, but also that it should use all its resources to achieve the ends set by its policy. However, it should be noted that the police and the rest of the criminal justice system (CJS) cannot be regarded as 'all the resources' that the government has to effectively fight against crime.
