Description
African Customary Law in South Africa: Post-Apartheid and Living Law Perspectives , Second Edition, offers a clear and accessible introduction to African indigenous law. Drawing upon the rich data, empirical research, case law (such as that on marriage validity) and legislative developments (including the Traditional and Khoi-San Leadership Act 3 of 2019 and the Traditional Courts Act 9 of 2022) that have emerged within the recent period, this second edition presents a deepened theoretical and technical understanding of living customary law. In a concise manner, the text provides foundational content on key aspects of living customary law systems, whilst also engaging the problematics of both contemporary and historical concern evidenced in emerging issues and debates within the discipline of law, and society more generally.
