Postcolonial Legality

Law, Power and Politics in Zambia

Více o knize

Focusing on the concept of Prerogativism, this book explores the impact of imperial power structures on Zambia's postcolonial constitutionalism. Through extensive ethnographic research with constitutional activists, it reveals how elite-driven reforms have marginalized popular participation and perpetuated a divide between the elite and the masses. The study critiques the reluctance of legal activists to engage with broader political issues and highlights the conservative ethos hindering transformative jurisprudence. It offers valuable insights for those interested in socio-legal analysis in postcolonial settings.
