Product Description
The Legal Process in Zambia: Cases and Materials
Author: J Chirwa
Format: Physical Hardcopy
This book, The Legal Process in Zambia: Cases and Materials, has given life to the pioneer book on legal process in Zambia published almost over two decades ago Legal Process: Zambian Cases, Legislation and Commentaries by the Right Honorable Lady Justice Mulela Margaret Munalula of the Constitutional Court of Zambia.
The text in the pioneer book largely remains correct as of today, but radical and significant changes have been made in both the constitutional regime and legislative framework that needed to be addressed.
As pointed out by Justice Munalula in the foreword to this book, such an approach and initiative was long overdue, especially after the 2016 constitutional amendments. This book will, therefore, present itself as an updated and useful reference resource to all lawyers at all levels – bench, bar and student.
This book covers a wide range of subjects and topics, which include the following:
Concept and sources of law
Comparative legal traditions
Court structure and tribunal system
Alternative dispute resolution
Judicial precedent
Statutory interpretation
Case-law technique
Lawyering skills
Trial advocacy
Moot court techniques
Legal research
Law-making process
Legal and academic writing
Legal education
