When Politics Prevail Over the Rule of Law
The article questions whether the Tribunal of the Southern Africa Development Community ( sadc ) ought to have entertained human rights cases given that the sadc Treaty does not endow it with such jurisdiction. It then analyses its demise in 2010, which was prompted by several rulings against Zimbabwe, whose policy of expropriating land without compensation was held to violate human rights. The pertinent aspects of these cases are reviewed, and t…
Climate-induced displacement in the Sahel
This article examines legal aspects of climate-induced forced displacement in the Sahel region of North Africa. The Sahel region is being adversely affected by climate change, leading to the displacement of thousands of people, both cross-border migrants and internally displaced persons (IDPs). The conventional stance is that refugee status does not extend to individuals displaced as a result of natural or environmental catastrophes and that cons…
The asean Human Rights Declaration
The adoption of the asean Human Rights Declaration in November 2012 marks the latest addition in the armoury of regional human rights protection. Even though it does not create a treaty based regime, it does incorporate all three ‘generations’ of human rights. The purpose of the present article is to examine the salient features of the Declaration not only by taking a comparative approach vis-à-vis the other regional systems but also by referring…
Mike Campbell (Pvt) Ltd et al v The Republic of Zimbabwe
In its first judgment the South African Development Community (SADC) Tribunal had to determine whether Zimbabwe's controversial programme of land redistribution for resettlement purposes was compatible with the SADC Treaty. The tribunal provided one of the few avenues of redress for farmers deprived of their property without compensation. It held that the land reform programme breached the treaty on the grounds that the property owners had been d…
The African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights
The African Charter of Human and Peoples' Rights came into force in 1986, and is unique in that it lacks a precedent. However, little scholarship exists analysing it as an operational system in practice. The success of the first edition of this book led to this updated second edition. Contributors include experts who have been actively involved in the implementation of the Charter - commissioners, NGOs and academics. Offering a detailed evaluatio…

Interim Measures in the Un Human Rights Committee
International human rights bodies with responsibility for monitoring the implementation and enforcement of rights protected by human rights treaties are usually empowered to indicate interim, or provisional, measures of protection in cases of urgency in order to safeguard the rights and persons of victims of alleged violations of human rights. 1 Whether State parties are obliged to comply with a request for interim measures of protection has been…
The African Union—A New Dawn for Africa
In March 2001 the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), meeting in extraordinary session in Sirte, Libya declared the establishment of a new pan-African body, the African Union (Union). 1 The Constitutive Act (Act) of the Union entered into force on 26 May 2001 2 and in due course this new institution will replace the OAU. 3 The Union, the brainchild of Libyan President Qaddafi, and modeled on the E…
Reparations in the Practice of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights
The African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights, which is mandated under the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights with promoting and protecting human rights in Africa, has attracted considerable criticism for being an ineffectual body. One of the complaints is that the Charter based regime lacks an effective system of remedies. This paper examines whether this criticism is justified. An analysis of the jurisprudence of the African Com…

Reinforcing the African System of Human Rights
In 1988 the Organisation of African Unity adopted a Protocol top the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights establishing an African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights. This development addresses one of the fundamental flaws in the institutional system for the protection of human rights in Africa since the Charter entered into force in 1986. The article analyses the provisions of the Protocol from a legal perspective and draws comparisons wi…
Separatism in the Comoros
Since its founding in 1963, the Organization of African Unity (OAU) has placed special emphasis on the preservation of the territorial integrity of African states. It has actively contributed to the development of relevant rules of international law, such as that of uti possidetis . Its opposition to the fragmentation of states has been absolute. However, the small island state of Comoros has challenged this state of affairs. The seemingly succes…

Land Reform in Zimbabwe
The Government of Zimbabwe has only recently begun to implement the commitment of the liberation movements to give land to poor 'communal' farmers, especially those dispossessed by the whiteminority régime after Rhodesia's unilateral declaration of independence in 1965. It needs to be recalled that by virtue of the Land Tenure Act of 1969 almost half of the country's agricultural land was allocated to Europeans, who had 'greater access to the reg…

The Aouzou Strip Dispute—A Legal Analysis
The outbreak of further hostilities between Chad and Libya in August 1987 was occasioned by a dispute concerning sovereignty over the so-called Aouzou Strip in northern Chad. The extent of Libyan involvement in Chad is motivated to a large degree by this territorial claim. This dispute must be distinguished from Libya's wider ambitions for Arab unity or its involvement in Chad's civil war, although it would appear true to say that Libya was there…
