1. The Guyana Court of Appeal : the challenges of the rule of law in a developing country [2002]

Description
Book — xliv, 189 p. ; 24 cm.
Summary
  • The Role of the Guyana Court of Appeal
  • The Legal Profession
  • The Rule of Law
  • Fundamental Rights
  • Sources of Law
  • Criminal Law
  • Law of Torts
  • Law of Contracts
  • Property Law
  • Conclusion.
  • (source: Nielsen Book Data)
This book is one of the few studies of how the rule of law has fared in a developing country since it achieved independence. The travails of the rule of law are related, intertwined with the problems of nation building in a multi-racial country. It provides a gripping account of the subversion of democracy, political pressures on the judiciary, the submissiveness of the judiciary, the quest for the adaptation of the law in non-political areas, a depressing failure to protect fundamental human rights, and a quest to build a distinctive Guyanese jurisprudence in the midst of all of these difficulties.
