Very high incidences of violent crimes in South Africa are a reality. The article draws attention to important issues that could have been strategically addressed in the first twelve years of democratic policing by the South African policing authorities to successfully manage the problem. Working with Liddell-Hart's idea that "Grand or higher Strategy" is "policy in execution", namely that it coordinates and directs all the resources of a nation, towards the attainment of the goal defined by fundamental policy, as well as Rejai's main components for strategy namely leadership, ideology and organization, the article analyses the South African Police Service's managerial response to the threat of crime in the first twelve years since the democratic election in 1994.
