Court-Managed Civil Procedure of the High Court of Namibia (Paperback): Petrus T. Damaseb Court-Managed Civil Procedure of the High Court of Namibia (Paperback)
Petrus T. Damaseb
R963 R851 Discovery Miles 8 510 Save R112 (12%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Court-Managed Civil Procedure of the High Court of Namibia: Law, Procedure and Practice represents the first textbook of its kind and introduces the reader to the most important reforms that have taken place since 2011 in the civil procedure of Namibia's High Court. During this period, the High Court of Namibia successfully implemented judicial case management, electronic filing, and court-connected alternative dispute resolution. Written by the head of Namibia's High Court and architect of the reform of that Court's civil process since he assumed office in 2004, the book demonstrates how the judges' and lawyers' roles have changed under judicial case management guided by the reformed civil justice system's overriding objective to 'facilitate the resolution of the real issues in dispute justly and speedily, efficiently and cost effectively' at minimum cost. The book maps the process by which Namibia was transformed from an orthodox adversarial system into one where the pace of civil litigation has been removed from litigants and lawyers and placed in the hands of judges. In that sense, the book holds important lessons for jurisdictions such as South Africa which, plagued by delay in delivery of civil justice, are considering radical reforms to their civil justice systems. Court-Managed Civil Procedure of the High Court of Namibia shows how the court rules from the old order have either been discarded or repurposed to achieve the salutary goals of judicial case management. The book explains the High Court's jurisdiction and how that court fits in Namibia's judicial architecture. The procedures are explained in easy to follow language and with logical coherence. There is detailed reference to Namibian and comparative authority throughout, demonstrating its scholarship as well as its enormous usefulness to practitioners, judges, and students of law alike, not only in Namibia but in common-law jurisdictions of especially Southern Africa. This work is destined to be an indispensable handbook on judicial case management, as well as on all other aspects of civil procedure which are eloquently discussed with reference to Namibian and comparative case law.

Contract Law in Zambia - An Introduction (Paperback): Evance Kalula Contract Law in Zambia - An Introduction (Paperback)
Evance Kalula; Sangwani Patrick Ng'ambi
R340 Discovery Miles 3 400 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Contract Law in Zambia: An Introduction covers all the relevant aspects of the law of contract in Zambia, in both statutory and common law. The book focuses on a range of topics, including the theoretical aspects, offer and acceptance, consideration, the intention to create legal relations, the terms of a contract, misrepresentation, duress and undue influence, void and illegal contracts, the discharge of a contract, and remedies for breach of contract. The author covers important English case law and related developments. However, the author also examines the increasing number of cases decided by the Zambian courts, which 'domesticate' and build on English law, and therefore highlights the relevance of the local context and the changes that have occurred as a result of home-grown adjudication. Contract Law in Zambia: An Introduction is intended mainly for law students, but legal practitioners, corporate professionals, and those in related disciplines will also find the book to be an indispensible resource.

Exploring Local Economic Development In South Africa (Paperback): Marius Venter Exploring Local Economic Development In South Africa (Paperback)
Marius Venter
R375 Discovery Miles 3 750 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Certified local economic developers are the cornerstone of municipalities that want to grow their economies and uplift the standard of living within communities in South Africa. Both internationally and in South Africa, there is growing awareness that economic development strategies are most effective when they are designed and implemented at a local level.

Local stakeholders are more familiar with the challenges and opportunities faced by the local economy and community and are therefore best placed to design and implement successful economic development strategies. For this reason, local economic development (LED) has emerged as an approach to economic development that holds the potential to promote social and economic development in a way that meets the basic needs of the poor and contributes to the growth of local economies.

This book is the first of its kind in South Africa. Its purpose is to contribute to a shared conceptual understanding of LED, provide guidelines on integrated LED planning and implementation, and contribute to the increasing need for the professionalisation of those working in LED and related sectors.

The content in this book is the result of 20 years of experience working with LED directorates in municipalities and extensive consultation with key public and private LED stakeholders in South Africa. The book is aligned to the competency requirements and continuous professional development programmes of the Economic Development Council of South Africa (EDCSA), which is the professional body for LED and other economic development professionals.

Reform of customary marriage, divorce and succession in South Africa: Living customary law and social realities examines the operation of the Recognition of customary marriages act and the rules of succession formulated in Bhe v Magistrate, Khayelitsha. The book is the outcome of an interdisciplinary research project conducted by the NRF chair in customary law, indigenous values and human rights, the department of sociology at the University of Cape Town, and the National movement of rural women. More than a decade after the enactment of the act and the formulation of the Bhe rules, the research project sought to explore how these laws were being implemented in practice, through the eyes of the individuals living according to customary law, a range of state institutions, including the courts and the Department of home affairs, and traditional leaders. The fieldwork was conducted across six provinces, over a period of 20 months. The findings presented in Reform of customary marriage, divorce and succession in South Africa about the implementation of the act and the Bhe rules will be of interest to a wide range of individuals, court and state officials, and scholars. The authors provide evidence-based research on the implementation of the laws and they outline what remains to be done to improve the implementation of these laws.

The issue of pre-trial release or bail remains an important topic in the criminal justice process. This is mainly because bail is concerned with one of the most important principles of justice, namely, individual freedom. The denial of release after arrest constitutes, without doubt, serious infraction to personal freedom. Thus, knowledge of the processes related to pre-trial release is important, not only to lawyers, but also to all who are interested in the right to freedom.

A Guide to Bail Applications second edition expands on some of the most important issues, case discussions and case excerpts related to bail applications. New information is also included which offers somewhat fresher perspectives to the material, without necessarily detracting from the general style, poise and content of the previous edition.

Ubuntu: An African Jurisprudence examines how and why South African courts and law-makers have been using the concept of ubuntu over the last thirty years, reflecting the views of judges and scholars, and above all proclaiming the importance of this new idea for South African legal thinking. Although ubuntu is the product of relations in and between the close-knit groups of a precolonial society, its basic aims - social harmony and caring for others - give it an inherently inclusive scope. This principle is therefore quite capable of embracing all those who constitute the heterogeneous populations of modern states. Included in this work are discussions of two traditional institutions that provide model settings for the realisation of ubuntu: imbizo, national gatherings consulted by traditional rulers to decide matters of general concern, and indaba, a typically African process of making decisions based on the consensus of the group. Courts and law-makers have used imbizo to give effect to the constitutional requirement of participatory democracy, and indaba to suggest an alternative method of decision-making to systems of majority voting. Ubuntu offers something extraordinarily valuable to South Africa and, in fact, to the wider world. Its emphasis on our responsibility for the welfare of our fellow beings acts as a timely antidote not only to the typically rationalist, disinterested system of justice in Western law, but also to the sense of anomie so prevalent in today's society.

Climate change is one of the central challenges facing African countries and their people. Unless concerted efforts are made worldwide very soon to reduce emissions, climate change impacts are likely to be devastating. Higher-end temperature scenarios present a dark future jeopardising secure access to basic needs such as water, food, housing and a healthy environment, as well as adding to the stressors on natural resources. Those who will suffer the most from the challenges posed by climate change have contributed the least to the problem in the first place: the poor and vulnerable, especially in developing countries. To make matters worse, these are the same people who have benefited the least from modernisation and industrialisation and have a relatively small carbon footprint. This is a double injustice. While climate justice and social justice are difficult to disentangle, neither the legal systems nor the main actors framing the dominant climate change narratives seem sufficiently attentive to the double-edged justice questions posed by the impacts of climate change on poor communities. This book attempts to fill some of the gaps in climate change scholarship by focusing on the climate narratives emerging in and around South Africa - how they relate to broader issues of social justice and resource allocation, and the role of rights talk and legal strategies in the framing of the problems and solutions. In doing so, the book contributes to developing rights- and justice-based strategies for translating knowledge into action. The authors approach the issues from different discourses and practices, but all have in common the integration between fairness related to environmental issues and fairness related to socio-economic issues.
