dc.description.abstractThe research focused on the role of traditional taboos in restraining the behaviours of the conflict perpetrators in Mazowe and Shamva districts of Zimbabwe as a policing mechanism in respective communities. The study established that while the taboo concept was an old-fashioned mechanism of restraining conflicts in society, it still had its place for as long as there were deliberate efforts towards sustaining its importance. It was also established that while the retention of the practice was purely to regulate children’s behaviours, there were some volatile situations that were addressed by the fear of the effects of the taboos.en_US
