The exploitation of natural resources in Africa represents a major challenge. The African continent, which remains largely unexplored, contains a large part of the world's natural resources. The current context, characterised by a fluctuation of commodity prices, does not reduce the growing interest in Africa and its extractive sector.

Increased international investment and accelerating economic growth in Africa in general and in Anglophone Africa, in particular, mean that businesses located both within and outside these jurisdictions will increasingly demand and require advice on cross-border commercial litigation. As the scope and scale of economic activity increases, the law governing commercial litigation will have to be developed and refined so as to reflect Africa's importance as a commercial hub. In Commercial Litigation in Anglophone Africa, the authors, for the first time in a work of this nature, set out the broad framework of the private international law rules in operation in each of the sixteen Anglophone jurisdictions considered (Botswana, Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Liberia, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe). The authors identify and clarify the law to be applied as it relates to: (i) civil jurisdiction over commercial disputes involving a foreign element; (ii) the enforcement of foreign judgments; and (iii) the availability and nature of the interim remedies, in each of the sixteen jurisdictions addressed. Contents cover: consideration of the various ways in which a court can assume jurisdiction over a business dispute in common law jurisdictions (Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia) and Roman-Dutch law jurisdictions (Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland and Zimbabwe); discussion of the potential benefits and difficulties which commercial litigants will experience in legal systems where jurisdiction is based entirely on service of process and in legal systems where jurisdiction is based on attachment of the defendant's person or property; an examination of the circumstances in which a court, once seised of jurisdiction over a business dispute, may, on the application of one of the parties, decline jurisdiction in deference to another jurisdiction; a detailed appraisal of the various mechanisms, both statutory and non-statutory, which are available to litigants seeking to enforce or prevent the enforcement of a foreign judgment in the jurisdictions covered; and consideration of the various interim/interlocutory remedies available to commercial litigants in each of the jurisdictions addressed. Specifically, the work concentrates on the principles which govern, inter alia: asset freezing (and asset disclosure) orders; search and seize orders; third party disclosure orders; mandament van spolie; and arrest suspectus tanquam de fuga orders.

Sur Le Livre - La commémoration du 20e anniversaire de l'OHADA au Cameroun a réussi à construire un édifice pluri-acteurs, pluridisciplinaires et une singulière dynamique entre les acteurs judiciaires et extrajudiciaires ; elle a bâti des passerelles scientifiques et pratiques entre le droit et l'économie, le monde universitaire et le milieu des affaires. Résultat, après 20 ans de pratique, on sait où on va : 20 ans vers l'émergence d'un nouveau pôle de développement économique en Afrique. On a surtout une moisson dense qui ne peut que susciter la curiosité intellectuelle des chercheurs en quête d'étoffe sur la matière, et celle des acteurs économiques, praticiens et professionnels à la recherche d'outils d'aide à la décision. En rapport avec la performance des entreprises et la croissance économique des Etats, l'ouvrage postule que l'efficacité et la compétitivité du système africain d'harmonisation ne seront effectives qu'avec le développement d'une culture d'évaluation permanente, endogène et empirique. Le Business Climate Survey en offre quelques indicateurs pouvant asseoir les bases d'un Observatoire africain de droit des affaires. Les rouages de la sécurisation du crédit, des incitations à l'investissement privé, de la gouvernance douanière, du crédit-bail comme levier de financement des PME, de la RSE, de la chaîne de confiance électronique dans l'économie numérique, etc. sont à l'actif de cet ouvrage qui rend compte de l'OHADA dans tous ses états et dans tous les Etats, consolide les acquis de l'intégration juridique et envisage les nouveaux défis du Droit africain des affaires face à la mondialisation des droits et aux particularismes sociologiques et linguistiques de l' "OHADA, entre son passé et son avenir".

Integrate is an easy read guide for people in business about the new way of thinking in running a company today. Businesses, large and small, have the same issues to contend with: greater expectations of their stakeholders, rising consumer power in the digital information age, environmental constraints, economic uncertainty in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, and social uncertainty on rising income inequality. Doing business today is quite different from the past. Different corporate tools are needed. One of the four corporate tools for today's business is integrated thinking. This extends strategy and daily management beyond the pure financial to encompass the social and environmental factors that deeply affect a company's future viability in the 21st century. Integrated thinking leads to another tool - the integrated report. This tells the company's story of how it creates value and how it can create value in the future. The global financial crisis showed that a more understandable and holistic form of company reporting is crucially needed. This book offers practical guidance on integrated thinking and the integrated report.

In 1994, Malawi adopted an unusually progressive Constitution, unprecedented in the country's political and constitutional history. 'Human Rights under the Malawian Constitution' takes stock of the human rights jurisprudence generated by the new Constitution and the new judiciary in Malawi over the past sixteen years. The book examines the largely unreported Malawian cases and legislation and systematically analyses them with a view to constructing a coherent corpus of human rights jurisprudence, which is essential to consolidating democracy, establishing the foundation for the rule of law and ushering in an era of accelerated development in Malawi. The author draws on a wealth of international and comparative jurisprudence, including that from other African countries, without detracting from the main objective of constructing a Malawian brand of jurisprudence. Ultimately the book reveals that it is possible for human rights to grow even in underdeveloped countries. 'Human Rights under the Malawian Constitution' is intended for use by judges, lawyers, legal scholars, students, civil society, law reform officers, human rights institutions and comparative law scholars. _______________________________________________ Danwood Mzikenge Chirwa is Associate Professor of Law and Head of the Department of Public Law at the University of Cape Town. He has published widely in the fields of constitutional and human rights law. _______________________________________________ '[This book] makes a significant contribution to African constitutional law. The author has engaged in a careful and systematic treatment of all of the clauses contained in Malawi's Bill of Rights, as well as the jurisprudence which has been developed by its courts over the past 16 years .... Accordingly, this is a work which anyone who wishes to engage in African constitutional law in general and Malawian law in particular will be required to use as a major source of reference.' Dennis Davis, Judge of the High Court of South Africa; Honorary Professor of Law, University of Cape Town '[This book] fills a gap in the literature of human rights in the region with its excellent examination of the Malawian provisions. It is well written and will appeal to a wider readership than Malawi.' Boyce Wanda, Professor of Law, University of Fort Hare
