Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Book presents a brief discussion of Zambia's Constitution-making from 1964 to date. Readers will particularly find the material useful to understand the four modes of initiating a Bill that alters the Constitution of Zambia and make a comparison with constitution-making processes in Kenya, South Africa and the United States of America. Although modern constitution-making processes emphasises public participation, readers are encouraged to take keen interest in understanding how constitution-amendment processes in advanced democracies like the United States of America happen. Therein lies a valuable lesson for lawmakers in the design of constitution-reform processes in African countries.The Book does not contain a conclusive discussion on all topics surrounding constitution-making and readers are advised to read a wide range of books. The material used in this Book has, by and large, been adapted from the Author's obligatory thesis for his law degree.
