Description
Utilizing detailed case studies from Nigeria, Ethiopia, and South Africa, this title traces African constitutionalism from precolonial times to the present. The volume offers a new framework for understanding African constitutionalism and a range of practical proposals for its future development.
Above all, for anybody seriously interested in a deeper understanding of the development, character, and predicaments of African constitutionalism, this book is not only essential but indispensable reading.
