Also it examines the difficulty of proper balancing of ideals like repressive customs versus societal standards, judicial activism versus Separation of Powers, inadequacy of laws versus non exhaustiveness of laws, international versus local laws supremacy.

Book excerpt: The recognition of women and female rights as a different concept in international law has fully been accepted in modern nation states. The fight for the protection and advancement of women and female rights as an international human right has been an on going work. Women and female children all over the world have always enjoyed lesser rights when compared with men and boys in every society whether primitive, developing or developed societies. Many governments all over the world have enacted laws and regulations to promote and protect the rights of women and female children. A lot of laws have been put in theory to give women equality with men. In reality or practice, many women and female children all over the world still find it difficult to realize their rights. This book acknowledges that in theory many African states have tried to change the statue books to accord women and female child some level of equality with men and boys but at the same time a look at the practice of the law in many African states shows a different pattern. There is a big disconnect between women's theoretical rights and the reality or practice of the theory. The objective of this book is to look at how far the law in print on the rights of women and female child has become the law in practice/reality in Africa. Rev. Dr. Eleazar E.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de la préface : "There has been persistent hue and cry over the years for the emancipation of women from the shackles of male domination. The rights of the Nigerian woman have been subsumed and suppressed by gender arrogance couched in the garb of religion and culture. The relegation of women has also received further impetus from legislative and judicial pronouncements that tend to perpetuate male domination ; a situation worsened by colonialism. In this book, the status of women insouth-western Nigeria is looked at from a legal perspective. This study is based on the premise that huge disparity in the socio-economic development of the women in south-western Nigeria is a consequence of inadequate legal protection."
