Fostering Constitutionalism in Africa
Author: Charles Manga Fombad
Publisher: PULP
ISBN: 0981442080
Category : Africa
Languages : fr
Pages : 414
Book Description
About the publication This volume comprises a small selection of papers first presented at the 2007 African Network of Constitutional Lawyers' conference in Nairobi. With contributions from Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Zambia, Malawi and the DRC, they cross the legal and language divides in Africa. Each paper raises issues that concern all Africans committed to good governance and human rights. They provide thought-provoking discussions of constitutional change and maintaining constitutional stability; ways of controlling the power of the executive; and who should control prosecutions, the executive or an independent body. They identify many challenges and try to chart new directions for the entrenchment of constitutionalism on the continent. All the contributions are in English and French to encourage a truly continental debate on these topical issues. This book is the first in the 'Rule of Law in Africa' series and the financial assistance of the World Bank is gratefully acknowledged. About the editors: Charles Fombad is Professor of law and Head of Department of Public Law at the Faculty of Law, University of Pretoria. Christina Murray is Professor of Human Rights and Constitutional Law at the University of Cape Town.

L'intégration de l'Afrique dans l'économie mondiale
Author: Arnaud Bourgain
Publisher: KARTHALA Editions
ISBN: 2811111484
Category : Africa
Languages : fr
Pages : 302
Book Description
"L'intégration de l'Afrique dans une économie-monde multipolaire est ambivalente. S'inscrivant dans des mouvements centrifuges et centripètes, dans le temps et dans l'espace, l'insertion de ce continent dans les relations économiques et financières internationales se caractérise par une diversité des situations nationales. Dans le cadre d'une mondialisation multidimensionnelle, l'Afrique a longtemps été considérée comme marginalisée et contrainte de s'y adapter. Elle apparaît, désormais, comme un de ses acteurs. L'ouvrage interroge le sens et la portée de cette intégration. Quelles formes prend-elle ? Dans quelles dynamiques s'inscrit-elle ? La place de chaque pays et leur évolution y demeurent-elles contrastées, tant au plan quantitatif que qualitatif ? Dans ce contexte, l'ouvrage présente quatre thématiques se rapportant à des mutations qui contribuent à renforcer, sous diverses formes, les composantes de l'intégration des pays africains dans l'économie mondiale : les liaisons Afrique-Asie, les modalités de l'exploitation des matières premières, les partenariats renouvelés avec l'Union européenne et les mouvements migratoires."--P. [4] of cover.

Africa Through Structuration Theory
Author: Mboyo, Jean Pierre Elonga
Publisher: Langaa RPCIG
ISBN: 9956763802
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Despite all the talk about African Renaissance, much of the continent is plagued by poverty and instability. To break out of that cycle, the guardians of African heritage (the old independence freedom fighters turned political leaders and their successors) and much of Afrocentric literature rightly promotes African ideas and solutions for African problems. While the idea in itself is noble, the danger is for Africa to close itself off and ignore ‘outside’ technical and intellectual innovations that it desperately needs to advance further. Africa through Structuration Theory - ntu joins the discourse by attempting to restore intellectual freedom and convincingly defends structuration theory not only as the way forward for Africa but also as a legitimately African concept. It is innovative, refreshing and deserves to be heard across the world and appreciated especially by African graduates, current and future leaders of various African institutions or businesses, non-Africans who might hesitate to refer to such a theory when trying to understand and deal with African problems and the wider public who constitute the audience for this book. New in this edition: All chapters have been tightened up to make a clearer and more robust case. Chapter three, in particular, has been developed further in an attempt to demonstrate how Ubuntu is an African version of structuration theory. Overall, having both approached the subject from a rational perspective and presented Ubuntu in its preferred version, it became imperative to discuss the status/role of the African body in the expression of human agency and characterise different leadership practices in Africa that do not necessarily reflect the ideals of Ubuntu. Hence, Chapter 6: Body sociology and Africa and Chapter 7: The FS (fear and self-scrutiny) methodology of Ubuntu: a mapping of the field.
