Abstract: | The South African approach to traditional governance and customary law was employed in Namibia until 1990, the year of the country's independence. Before that year, the place customary law was to play after independence, i.e. in the future legal system of independent Namibia, had to be addressed. The present paper examines this process. It also pays attention to the place African customary law was to have in the law curriculum of the future Faculty of Law. Notes, ref. [ASC Leiden abstract] |
