to explore its continued relevance in sub-Saharan Africa…[It] considers the
characteristics of customary law and efforts to ascertain and codify customary
law, and how this body of law differs in content, form, and status from
legislation and common law. It also addresses a number of substantive areas
of customary law including the role and power of traditional authorities;
customary criminal law; customary land tenure, property rights and intestate
succession; and the relationship between customary law, human rights and
gender equality. | en_US |
