dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study was to elucidate the various ways in which colonial influence and power impacted upon indigenous African dispute resolution methods. The study provides an over-view of the systematic way in which colonisation was carried out and how the law was instrumental to its perpetuation and installation. The research further provides an analysis of the generic principles that constitutes indigenous African dispute resolution methods and provides discussion on the core values of these processes. The research demonstrates that the colonisation project was systematic and strategic when eroding and side-lining these dispute resolution practices, in an attempt to render them redundant and ineffective. The malleability of African dispute resolution methods has not only ensured that it remains relevant throughout the continent but has also made strides in influencing the development of western laws and judicial processes in Africa. Taking these strides into consideration, the research looks into the viability of reviving and possibly expanding the reach of African indigenous dispute resolution methods beyond the boarders of Africa. | en_US |
