Download or read book Colonial Legacies and the Rule of Law in Africa written by Salmon A Shomade and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the continued impact of British colonial legacy on the rule of law in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. The legal system is intended to protect regular citizens, but within the majority of Africa the rule of law remains infused with Eurocentric cultural and linguistic tropes, which can leave its supposed beneficiaries feeling alienated from the structures intended to protect them. This book traces the impact, effect, opportunities, and challenges that the colonial legacy poses for the rule of law across Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. The book examines the similarities and differences of the colonial legacy on the current legal landscape of each nation and the intersection with the rule of law. This important comparative study will be of interest to scholars of Political Science, International Studies, Law, African Politics, and British Colonial History.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "THE RULE OF LAW AND COLLECTIVE SECURITY IN NIGERIA" is in two volumes. Volume one focuses attention on collective physical security and various crimes while volume two highlights the modalities for attaining collective democratic, political, socio-economic, environmental, familiar, international and Spiritual security; and collective governance in the country. The book generally considers the role of the Rule of Law as the engine room of participatory democracy and collective governance in Nigeria. Collective governance constitutes the driving force of Collective Security that encompasses physical, legal, political, democratic, social, environmental, informational, familiar, and global forms of security. This book highlights the importance of collective involvement in governance by all Nigerians under an atmosphere of unity in diversity as the pre-requisite to the attainment of world-power status by the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is hoped that the book will awaken in every Nigerian the consciousness of patriotism, volunteer service, and inner Spiritual awakening that serves as the basis for the attainment of successful collective governance and security in Nigeria.

Download or read book Constitutional Law in Nigeria written by Oyelowo Oyewo and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this very useful analysis of constitutional law in Nigeria provides essential information on the country’s sources of constitutional law, its form of government, and its administrative structure. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the clarifications of particular terminology and its application. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes the specific points at which constitutional law affects the interpretation of legal rules and procedure. Thorough coverage by a local expert fully describes the political system, the historical background, the role of treaties, legislation, jurisprudence, and administrative regulations. The discussion of the form and structure of government outlines its legal status, the jurisdiction and workings of the central state organs, the subdivisions of the state, its decentralized authorities, and concepts of citizenship. Special issues include the legal position of aliens, foreign relations, taxing and spending powers, emergency laws, the power of the military, and the constitutional relationship between church and state. Details are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for both practising and academic jurists. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Nigeria will welcome this guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative constitutional law.

Download or read book Comparative Health Law and Policy written by Irehobhude O. Iyioha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health law and policy in Nigeria is an evolving and complex field of law, spanning a broad legal landscape and drawn from various sources. In addressing and interacting with these sources the volume advances research on health care law and policy in Nigeria and spells the beginning of what may now be formally termed the ’Nigerian health law and policy’ legal field. The collection provides a comparative analysis of relevant health policies and laws, such as reproductive and sexual health policy, organ donation and transplantation, abortion and assisted conception, with those in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and South Africa. It critically examines the duties and rights of physicians, patients, health institutions and organizations, and government parastatals against the backdrop of increased awareness of rights among patient populations. The subjects, which are discussed from a legal, ethical and policy-reform perspective, critique current legislation and policies and make suggestions for reform. The volume presents a cohesive, comparative, and comprehensive analysis of the state of health law and policy in Nigeria with those in the US, Canada, South Africa, and the UK. As such, it provides a valuable comparison between Western and Non-Western countries.
