商品簡介
In 2011, two significant historical events occurred on the African continent: namely, the popular uprisings in North African countries, which have widely become known as the "Arab Spring," and the formal independence of South Sudan, Africa's youngest state. Both major developments - the upheaval and the referendum for independence - initiated various legal processes in response to the countries' respective political and socio-economic challenges. Despite different evolutionary concepts, the political upheavals in countries like Egypt and Libya are mirrored in South Sudan in how to deal with institution building, constitution making and its process, the role and rule of law in a nation-state, national/international conflict resolution mechanisms, and the involvement of a multitude of actors. This book examines the process of the legal transformations that took place. [Subject: International Public Law, Constitutional Law, Human Rights Law, Conflict Resolution, Politics]
