Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Customary law marriages play an important role in the lives of many Zambians, as the vast majority of Zambians contract their marriages under customary law. However, it is important to highlight that there is no statute codified to govern marriages contracted under customary law in Zambia. For this reason, this research aimed at analysing how codification of customary law marriages could foster equality between men and women. Based on its findings, the research introduced the principle of codification as a tool that could be applied as a mechanism that enhances the protection of women's rights under customary law marriages.
