Book excerpt: Seit der Aufnahme von Menschenrechten in die Verfassung Tansanias im Jahre 1984 verfugen alle drei ostafrikanischen Staaten uber verfassungsrechtlich garantierte einklagbare Individualrechte. In einer vergleichenden Studie werden die Ausgestaltung der Grundrechte und -freiheiten in den Menschenrechtskatalogen (bills of rights) der Verfassungen Tansanias, Kenias und Ugandas, auch im Lichte der bestimmenden historischen, politischen, okonomischen und sozialen Faktoren, untersucht. Mit seiner detaillierten Analyse der Gerichtsentscheidungen in bezug auf die Durchsetzung der verfassungsrechtlichen Individualrechte und die Einbeziehung sowohl internationaler Menschenrechtskonventionen als auch auslandischer Rechtsprechung in der Praxis der Gerichte ist das Buch zugleich ein Beitrag zur Verfassungsrechtsvergleichung.Der Band zeigt Entwicklungen, Defizite und Alternativen auf und ist damit wichtig sowohl fur vergleichende Rechtswissenschaftler in Europa als auch fur Verfassungsrechtler und Rechtsanwalte in Ubersee. Der Autor ist Dozent an der Universitat Dar es Salaam, Tansania.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "African civil law countries are traditionally described as monist and common law countries as dualist. This book illustrates that the monism-dualism dichotomy is too simplistic, in particular in the field of human rights. Academics and practitioners from across the continent illustrate how domestic courts in Africa have engaged with international human rights law to interpret or fill gaps in national bills of rights. The authors also consider the challenges encountered in increasing the use of international human rights law by African domestic courts."--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of human rights and its attendant these of access to justice have remained relevant areas to the legal fraternity. This relevance resonates well in the fields of teaching and learning the law, consultancy, legal practice and advocacy, law reform, and judicial decision making. In the East African region, however, the availability of research and reference material for these two areas of learning has remained low. It is against the backdrop of the foregoing that the publishing of the Digest on Human Rights and Access to Justice in East Africa is an important aspect of the development of the law in the region. Bringing together decisions of both municipal courts within the East Africa region beyond, the digest has breathed a totally new lease of life into the practice and comparative legal studies in the area of human rights and access to justice. To a large extent, the digest has robbed practitioners of law of the excuses attendant to poor advocacy in the arena of human rights. It has robbed judicial officer of the excuses attendant to shallow and poorly reasoned judgments. It has robbed students and teachers of law the excuses attendant to poorly researched theses in the area of human rights. Definitely, it has added immense value to the consumers of human rights and access to justice. This Digest is a product of the fruitful on-going collaboration between LawAfrica Publishing Ltd and East Africa Law Society. Both LawAfrica with its East Africa Law Reports, and EALS, with its ever-growing collaboration between East African lawyers, yearn for greater integration of legal practice in the three East African countries. This Digest is a contribution to that desire.

Book excerpt: The Jurisprudence on Regional and International Tribunals Digest is borne out of the recent developments in the judicial arena of the East African Community and other inter-state arrangements where matters are increasingly getting litigated and determined at the international fora. With such a development, there is the more current need to document the reasoning, not just of judicial officers from the East African Court of Justice but also from other regional and international tribunals. This will help in consolidating knowledge on diverse aspects of substance and procedure from these tribunals for both academic and practice purposes. This digest no doubt adds value to practitioners in the East African region and beyond who are getting absorbed into legal practice before tribunals of an international law character. It is hoped that the digest will further be of great assistance to the community of the academia that is in need of material for the dispensation of knowledge in the area of international law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when the issue of human rights in Africa is making many advances, Human Rights Sourcebook and Manual for Africa introduces easy-to-use jurisprudence. The first section covers key principles and human rights norms which are detailed in straightforward language. The second section is devoted to the death penalty, detailing the relevant provisions from both international and regional instruments and offering a comparative commentary as to how the principles and relevant rights relate to the death penalty. The third section summarizes key case law from international, regional and domestic African courts and tribunals. The case summaries detail the facts and decisions and include a headnote of relevant concepts for quick reference. The fourth section focuses on thirteen African countries, yet the reports are a useful comparative resource for all countries. From conducting the research and compiling the material for this final section, it is apparent that nothing like this has been attempted before in Africa. Much of the work emanates from primary research and investigation conducted by local research teams in the individual countries. Investigative research includes visiting prisons, physically counting the individuals on death row and interviewing the detainees to obtain their age and the length of time they had been on death row.

This book was released on 2011-12-23 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African human rights system has undergone some remarkable developments since the adoption of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights, the cornerstone of the African human rights system, in June 1981. The year2011 marked the 30th anniversary of the adoption of the African Charter. It also marked 25 years since the African Charter entered into force on 21 October 1986.This book aims to provide reflections on most of the major human rights issues in the past 30 years of the African human rights system in practice and discussion on the future: the African Charter s impact and contribution to the respect, protection and promotion of human rights in Africa; the contemporary challenges faced by the African Human rights system in responding adequately to the demands of rapidly evolving African societies; and how the African human rights system can be strengthened in the future to ensure that the human rights protected in the African Charter, as developed in the jurisprudence of the African Commission since the Commission was inaugurated in 1987, are realised in practice.The chapters in this volume bring together the work of 20 human rights scholars and practitioners, with expertise in human rights in Africa, under the following general themes: rights and duties in the African Charter; rights of the vulnerable under the African system; implementation mechanisms for human rights in Africa; and towards an effective African regional human rights system.

This book was released on 2022-10-17 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Politics - Topic: Public International Law and Human Rights, grade: 82, University of Rwanda, course: LAW, language: English, abstract: This thesis analyses the enforcement of judgements of the East African Court of Justice. The most generic challenge faced by many international courts is the level of obedience by their member states. The EACJ is not an island to this common reflection. Essentially, international courts are influential only when their decisions are easily complied with and executed by member states. If not, as with the case of the EACJ, then, such an international court will always be on the brink of being toothless and ineffective. At the end of each reference, the EACJ delivers a judgment. It also issues interim orders carrying a status similar to that of a court judgment. Member States as well as the Council are bound to implement EACJ judgments without delay. But there are no established mechanisms to ensure compliance in the event that a state refuses to implement a decision against it. Since 2005 the EACJ has dealt with more than 190 matters. What is intriguing in those judgments is tracking the extent to which they have been met with compliance. Member States have not been sanctioned when they have failed to comply with the EACJ's decisions. It is a matter of fact and a matter of principle that the nature of EACJ judgments is declaratory, and this tends to attract noncompliance. The best the Court can offer is to declare violations of the law, give orders for injunctive relief, and award costs to the successful applicants. The costs order depends on the nature of the case. Public interest cases do not attract costs orders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws attention to emerging issues around the rights of minorities, marginalized groups, and persons in Africa. It explores the gaps between human rights provisions and conditions, showing that although international human rights principles have been embraced in the continent, various minority groups and marginalized persons are denied such rights through criminalization and persecution. African countries have a good record of signing and ratifying international and regional rights instruments but the political will and capacity for enforcing these with respect to minorities remain weak. International contributors to the book provide new perspectives on the rights of marginalized and minority groups in different parts of Africa and the extent to which they are deprived or denied entitlement to the universality and equality articulated in law. The authors show that human rights, while having come of age as a moral ideal, has not been fully entrenched in practice towards groups such as children, indigenous populations, the mentally ill, persons with disabilities, and persons with albinism. This volume is geared toward scholars, students, human rights groups, policy makers, social workers, international organizations, and policy makers in the fields of criminology, security studies, development studies, political science, sociology, children studies, social psychology, international relations, postcolonial studies, and African Studies.
