Since independence, various constitutions from African countries have undergone a succession of changes, triggered by either the domestic or international environment or both. These processes constitute autonomous epochal ‘waves’ or ‘phases’ of constitution-making which need to be unpacked, historicised and explored in a systematic manner. This work, intended as a distinctive object of positive analysis, historicizes the independence constitutions of selected African states on either country or comparative basis. A historical approach to the continental study of constitutions is rare, meaning the continental coverage of the book is justified by Africa’s rich diversity reflected in its multiple monarchical and colonial backgrounds. The book is of interest to academics interested in having a panoramic view of Africa's constitutional development from a historical perspective. 0aPolitical sciencexPhilosophy.957588 0aPolitical planning.95771714aPolitical Philosophy.96696424aPolicy Formulation.9799431 aAwasom, Nicodemus Fru.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9858311 aDlamini, Hlengiwe Portia.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9858322 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303166807408iPrinted edition:z978303166809808iPrinted edition:z9783031668104 0aPhilosophy and Politics - Critical Explorations,x2352-8389 ;v3197142140uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-66808-1  aZDB-2-REP  aZDB-2-SXPR  c64101d64101
