African Customary Law, Customs, And Women's Rights, Muna Ndulo Dec 2014

African Customary Law, Customs, And Women's Rights, Muna Ndulo

Muna B Ndulo

The sources of law in most African countries are customary law, the common law and legislation both colonial and post-independence. In a typical African country, the great majority of the people conduct their personal activities in accordance with and subject to customary law. Customary law has great impact in the area of personal law in regard to matters such as marriage, inheritance and traditional authority, and because it developed in an era dominated by patriarchy some of its norms conflict with human rights norms guaranteeing equality between men and women. While recognizing the role of legislation in reform, it is …

Judicial Reform, Constitutionalism And The Rule Of Law In Zambia: From A Justice System To A Just System, Muna Ndulo

United Nations Peacekeeping Operations And Security And Reconstruction, Muna Ndulo

Muna B Ndulo
