Book Description
It is important to do research to try to find out what social forces account for such a high incidence of interpersonal violence in the developing countries and to discover any differences that exist between these countries and the more developed countries. Tibamanya Mushanga has attempted to do this in his study about homicide in Uganda. The research presents an analysis of the incidence, trends and patterns of criminal homicide from among a sample of 484 cases committed between 1955 and 1966 in three districts (Ankole, Toro and Kigezi) of Western Uganda. The primary source of his data was the court files, both the district courts and the High Court. These data were supplemented with personal interviews with village elders and policemen, newspaper reports and other information. He also included an analysis of homicide among a number of other tribal groups in Uganda.

Book Description
"Offences Against the Person: Homicides and Non-fatal Assaults in Uganda, covers the substantive law on homicide and non-fatal assaults in Uganda. It is based on judicial interpretation of the Uganda Penal Code - the principal criminal legislation in the country. Ugandan law was originally based on English law and the Uganda Penal Code is still principally a reaction of criminal law as it existed in Britain in 1930. However, since independence, the Uganda Judiciary has interpreted the law in terms of Uganda's own political, cultural, social and economic circumstances. Using the records of Ugandan courts as well as older English Court Records - and of the Court of Appeal for Eastern Africa - the book gives students and scholars of criminal law details of the cases on which important judgements have been made and which therefore provide the basis for future decisions." "By answering questions of how wider policy issues have impacted or should impact on criminal law, the author hopes that students of law will be better prepared to deal with issues of law reform, especially from a human rights perspective."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Crime in Africa is fast growing like African cities, African poverty, African indebtedness, African brain-drain and African dependence; everything in Africa appears to be growing very fast; population too has been fast growing except that it is being reduced by violence as we have witnessed in Rwanda, Burundi and Somalia and AIDS pandemic that is first spreading in Africa, claiming thousands of lives every year. This book is a collection of essays and papers not based on empirical research on crime in East Africa but general observations arising out of the authors experience as a criminologist in East Africa.

From Rwanda to Sierra Leone, African countries recovering from tyranny and war are facing an impossible dilemma: to overlook past atrocities for the sake of peace or to seek catharsis through tribunals and truth commissions. In this work, Rice reports on Idi Amin's legacy and the limits of reconciliation.
