Originally published in 1963, an examination of these constitutional developments from the authoritative pens of the previous Legal Adviser to the Colonial and Commonwealth Relations Offices, and the Legal Adviser to the Colonial Office at the time, was, therefore, particularly timely—for no two men in human history can have had to draft so many constitutional instruments. One after another of these new constitutions had, moreover, included certain 'Fundamental Rights,' so a discussion of this subject by a recognized academic authority, together with an examination by an ex-Chief Justice of Allahabad of the constitutional writs that have been so widely used in India to protect these rights, was particularly appropriate. An erudite examination of the origins of the famous phrase 'Justice, Equity, and Good Conscience by the Reader in Oriental Laws in the University of London, fittingly concludes the first half of this volume. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLegal developments in these emergent countries, however, had by no means been limited to the sphere of constitutional law. So the series continues with contributions on the legal profession in African territories, by a former President of the Law Society, and on the problems posed by Islamic law in that continent, by the Professor of Oriental Laws. Criminal Law is represented by a consideration of 'Liability under the Nigerian Criminal Code by an ex-Chief Justice of the Western Region; matters economic and sociological by papers on 'Legal Development and Economic Growth in Africa and 'Womens Status and Law Reform by two experts in Africa law; and developments in Asia by an examination of recent leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 540g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 216 x 138 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032157900\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44883275088122,"sku":"9781032157900","price":32.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1702058591201_book.jpg?v=1702475397","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/changing-law-in-developing-countries-9781032157900","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
