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 …

Maritime Piracy And Armed Robbery Confrontations Across The Globe: Can Crew Action Shape The Outcomes?, Justin Stewart Lewis
Maritime Piracy And Armed Robbery Confrontations Across The Globe: Can Crew Action Shape The Outcomes?, Justin Stewart Lewis
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
Abstract
The recent tightening of military budget constraints has called into question the feasibility of costly multilateral naval intervention used to combat maritime piracy off the eastern coast of Africa. Though past studies agree that the transformation of the Somali economy and government is crucial for a long-term solution to piracy in this part of the world, short to medium-run solutions are needed to bridge the gap. Such solutions should be fiscally sensible and serve as effective deterrents, as well as be applicable in addressing the problem of piracy and maritime armed robbery in other parts of the globe.

"T.I.A" - This Is Africa - So Why The Icc?, Fletcher Miles
"T.I.A" - This Is Africa - So Why The Icc?, Fletcher Miles
Fletcher V Miles Mr
Since its creation the International Criminal Court (“ICC”) has been under scrutiny and repeatedly criticised for judicial failure and imperial arrogance. At the heart of this criticism is the simple fact that the ICC prosecution list is made up exclusively of African states, which demonstrates a clear bias towards the African continent.
This paper addresses the key factors causing perceptions of bias while considering the extreme difficulties faced by the ICC in operating a judicial body within a politically driven international community. Fundamental issues introduce the background of the bias such as funding distribution, the skew of ICC jurisdiction, colonialism …
Public Accounts Committees In Eastern And Southern Africa. A Comparative Analysis, Riccardo Pelizzo, Abel Kinyondo
Public Accounts Committees In Eastern And Southern Africa. A Comparative Analysis, Riccardo Pelizzo, Abel Kinyondo
riccardo pelizzo
This article provides the first and most comprehensive analysis of Public Accounts Committees (PACs) from Eastern and Southern Africa building on the work of McGee, Jacobs, Stapenhurst, and Staddon. By analyzing an original set of data, this article shows that PACs in these two regions are bigger, have more staff members, and are more likely to be chaired by opposition Members of Parliament than they have in other countries and regions. Furthermore, the data show that Eastern and Southern African PACs are more active than their counterparts elsewhere. However, lack of political will and limits to the range of powers …
A Framework To Approach Shared-Use Of Mining Related Infrastructure, Perrine Toledano, Sophie Thomashausen, Nicolas Maennling, Alpa Shah
A Framework To Approach Shared-Use Of Mining Related Infrastructure, Perrine Toledano, Sophie Thomashausen, Nicolas Maennling, Alpa Shah
Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment Staff Publications
In April 2013, CCSI was awarded a grant from the Australian Government to develop an economically, legally and operationally rational framework to enable shared use of mining-related infrastructure, including rail, ports, power, water, internet and telecommunications. The framework was obtained by distilling best practice principles from infrastructure developments around the world, guided by expert opinion. It has most recently been refined through in-depth case studies in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Mozambique, although its principles aim to be of general relevance to all resource rich African countries. The report was finalized in March 2014.

The G20 And Africa: A Critical Assessment, Daniel D. Bradlow
The G20 And Africa: A Critical Assessment, Daniel D. Bradlow
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
The increased globalisation over the last 20 years has made effective global economic governance more important than ever. This period has witnessed the rise of a number of new international governance actors, such as the Group of Twenty (G-20) and the Financial Stability Board. The paper proposes a five-part test to evaluate how the existing global governance actors serve the interests of all stakeholders in the global economy.
The test is based on five factors indicating good global governance. These are the goals relating to global economic governance being followed by the governance entity, respect for applicable international legal principles, …

Informal–Formal Sector Interactions In Automotive Engineering, Kampala, Dick Kawooya
Informal–Formal Sector Interactions In Automotive Engineering, Kampala, Dick Kawooya
Faculty Publications
This chapter provides findings from a Ugandan case study that examined innovation transfers between informal-sector automotive artisans and formally employed researchers at Makerere University’s College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT). Th e primary site studied was CEDAT’s Gatsby Garage, an automotive workshop where it was found that the informal-sector artisans were central to innovative processes but were at the same time driven more by sharing impulses than by concern for the intellectual property (IP) implications of their work. Based on these findings, it is argued that Ugandan policy-makers need to seek policy tools to support innovation transfers between …
