Beginning with an overview of constitutionalism in Africa and the different influences on modern African constitutional developments, it looks at the relationship between the legislature and the executive as well as the relationship between the judiciary and the political branches. Despite differences in approaches between the different constitutional cultures that have influenced developments in Africa, there remain common problems. One of these problems is the constant friction in the relationship between the three branches and the resurgent threats of authoritarianism which clearly suggest that there remain serious problems in both constitutional design and implementation. The book also studies the increasing role being played by independent constitutional institutions and how they complement the checks and balances associated with the traditional three branches of government.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fombad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198759797\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198759799\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 444\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.90w x 1.20d","brand":"Fombad","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48435279921407,"sku":"9780198759799","price":255.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_12551976-c3a2-4ada-9827-89fc10346367.jpg?v=1777149391","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/separation-powers-african-const-shacl-fombad-9780198759799","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
