About this title

Synopsis

Collaborators to this volume include experts involved in the implementation of the African Charter--commissioners, NGOs and academics--who evaluate it as an operational system in practice. Chapters cover the Charter's reporting system, the Commission's interpretation of different rights, prospects for the African Court on Human and People's Rights and the role of NGOs. This authoritative, comprehensive book will interest lawyers acting for government and non-governmental organizations, as well as academics and post-graduates.
