Book excerpt: When it comes to drafting constitutions that promote constitutional democracy, Cameroonians have been rather unfortunate. Their constitutions have been inspired by less successful traditions and have generally sought to frustrate constitutional democracy, devolution of powers, and competitive multiparty politics. This is an extract from Dr. Akih's third book on the political situation in Cameroon. The first book, The West Cameroon Problem and its Solution: A Federalist Perspective, identifies federalism as the best solution to the ongoing separatist conflict. His second, Cameroon after Paul Biya, deals with the imminent presidential transition, arguing for strict adherence to constitutional democracy and transparent elections, followed by reforms toward federalism. The third book provides concrete constitutional proposals. This extract omits the introductory discussion and focuses only on the proposed constitutions for the Federal Republic of Cameroon and the Federated State of West Cameroon.Dr. Benjamin K. Akih hails from the North West Region of Cameroon. He is currently an Associate Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University, New York. He is also a political activist, known for his advocacy against the marginalization of West Cameroon as well as for his promotion of constitutional democracy and competitive multiparty politics in Cameroon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Republic of Cameroon which came into existence on October 1, 1961, is made up of former Southern Cameroons which was administered by the British Government as an integral part of her Colony of Nigeria, and the Republic of Cameroon - a former trust territory under French Administration. Thus West Cameroon (i.e. former Southern Cameroons) was endowed with a legal system akin to that of Nigeria, and therefore of Great Britain, and East Cameroon (i.e. the former Republic of Cameroon) was endowed with the French legal system. This thesis, the first of its kind, attempts to trace the development of the laws and constitution of Cameroon within the framework not only of these two major foreign legal systems, but also of the indigenous systems. The work is divided into three Parts comprising of twelve chapters. Part I, comprising only of Chapter I, deals with a general historical and ethnographic survey of Cameroon. An attempt has been made, particularly in connection with the historical introduction, to piece together the various treaties and agreements which gave Cameroon her present boundaries. Part II comprises of Chapters II - IV. Chapter II deals with the administration, by the French and British Governments, within the framework of the Mandate and Trusteeship systems, of their respective parts of Cameroon. Attention is also paid to the political and constitutional developments leading to independence and reunification. These include the United Nations conducted plebiscites in the Cameroons and the Cameroons: case at the International Court of Justice which arose therefrom. Chapter III is devoted to an analysis of the Federal and Federated State constitutions while Chapter IV deals with the courts and legal profession in Cameroon. Part III comprises Chapters V - XII, each of which deals with a specific subject. Thus Chapter V traces the Sources of Law in Cameroon while Chapter VI deals with Procedure and Evidence. The five others deal respectively with Criminal Law, Civil Law (i.e. Contract and Tort), Commercial Law, Land Law and Family Law. Chapter XII deals briefly with the attempts, few as they are, which have been made to integrate the law. In each of the chapters in this part, we have tried to deal with both the French and English law on each topic, the aim being to point out where they are different and to make suggestions for dealing with such differences. Although these suggestions have sometimes come out either in favour of French or English law where either system was thought better, we have not ceased to emphasize the tremendous advantage in being able to produce new laws based on the best from both systems.

Book excerpt: When it comes to drafting constitutions that promote constitutional democracy, Cameroonians have been rather unfortunate. Their constitutions have been inspired by less successful traditions and have generally sought to frustrate constitutional democracy, devolution of powers, and competitive multiparty politics. The 1961 Reunification of former British Southern Cameroons with the then independent former French Cameroon gave rise to a Federal Constitution which many saw as a ray of hope. This hope was dashed in 1972 by the unconstitutional transition to a centralized unitary state system of government. This change has led to serious political conflicts that can only be resolved by a return to Federalism. Even the 1961 Federal Constitution would fail today to satisfy the demands for true devolution of powers with effective checks and balances. A new Federal Constitution is therefore needed.In this book, Dr. Benjamin K. Akih discusses the central role of a constitution as a social contract and demonstrates that Cameroon's Constitution fails to meet the needs of the nation. To stimulate debate on a new Federal Constitution, he pragmatically proposes two constitutions: a Federal Constitution and a Constitution for the Federated State of West Cameroon. He is optimistic that others will appreciate the reasonableness of most of the ideas, promote the proposed ideas, and demand for a constitutional convention. This is Dr. Akih's third book on the political situation in Cameroon. The first book, The West Cameroon Problem and its Solution: A Federalist Perspective, identifies federalism as the best solution to the ongoing separatist conflict. His second, Cameroon after Paul Biya, deals with the imminent presidential transition, arguing for strict adherence to constitutional democracy and transparent elections, followed by reforms toward federalism. This third book provides concrete constitutional proposals.Dr. Benjamin K. Akih hails from the North West Region of Cameroon.

Book excerpt: This collection of essays assesses the efforts of African governments to constitutionalise decentralisation, be it in the form of federalism, local government or traditional authorities. Since the end of the Cold War jurisdictions across Africa have witnessed an ostensible return to multi-party democracy within the paradigm of constitutionalism and the rule of law. Linked to the democratisation process, many countries took steps to decentralize power by departing from the heavily centralized systems inherited from colonial regimes. The centralization of power, typically characterized by the personalization and concentration of power in the hands of leaders and privileged elites in capital cities, mostly resulted in repressive regimes and fragile states. As decentralisation is a response to these challenges, this volume analyses the dynamic relationship between the efforts to implement decentralization and presence or absence of constitutionalism. This volume examines a variety of forms and degrees of decentralization found across Africa. It advances a new understanding of trends and patterns and facilitates the exchange of ideas among African governments and scholars about the critical role that decentralisation may play in democratization of and constitutionalism in Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The federation of the previously British and French Cameroons has, since 1961, tried to integrate a highly fragmented, bilingual society in which nearly every social cleavage found in Africa was present, including the complication of disparate colonial legacies. Professor Johnson describes the impact of these different colonial legacies on the traditional cultural patterns of Cameroon, attempting to explain the rise of the movement for political reunion among them. He considers the character of the federal union and the Cameroonian leaders' conception of federalism in the light of other experiences with federalism (e.g. the early United States). His conclusions involve the potential importance and limitations of federalism for the new Africa, the role and impact of political rebellion and violence, and the important conceptual distinctions that should be made between processes of political integration and nation-building. Originally published in 1970. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last 6 years have witnessed a period of considerable unrest in Cameroun. In 2016, protests within the minority Anglophone regions, against the obligatory use of French in court rooms and schools, were violently suppressed. This, combined with decades of marginalisation by successive Francophone governments, led to calls for secession – the creation of an independent nation of Ambazonia.This book offers a theological reflection on this escalating crisis, examining whether nationalism might be considered a tool of liberation in this particular African context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that Southern Cameroons up to the late 1960s had extensively developed an evolved mature, political culture. It was amazingly led by a range of: simple, visionary, austere, honest, peace-loving and realistic leaders, almost without exception; vintage products of their epoch. Distinguished by good governance; throughout it organized frequent free, fair and transparent elections, peaceful handover of power and enjoyed free primary and adult education. It was further crowned with an ideal, efficient civil service, literally, corruption free. In fact, the period, 1955-1968 in the history of Southern Cameroons qualifies as a "Golden Age" for that nostalgic state, whose citizens were repeatedly referred to as "nice, peace loving, loyal, good and hospitable people" by administrators, missionaries, visitors and those who got to know them closely. The most remarkable observation however, was that finally made by Malcolm Milne, the greatest critic, who noted that during his last couple of years in the Southern Cameroons administration, he dealt with: "People of high intelligence who knew exactly what they wanted." Of the civil servants, he maintains that they had greatly enriched his time in the colonial service; "There was something very special about that corps; their service was their watch word." This superlative description by Malcolm Milne was being made of a combination of the people of the present North and South West Regions, whom he saw as a socio-cultural, economic and political unit. It is therefore obvious that from 1955 - 1968, Southern West Cameroon came close towards becoming an ideal state.
