Law of Defamation in Commonwealth Africa
Author: Jill CottrellPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429837259
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
First published in 1998, this book is an exposition of the law of defamation as it applies in those countries (excluding South Africa). It discusses or refers to hundreds of cases from those jurisdictions, as well as many important precedents from England, analysing the law and discussing how far the courts have developed their own approaches to the law, and to what extent the law reflects the values of traditional society and customary law. It thus shows how the law is being used in a field which is both intensely political and reflects important social interests. Though directed mainly at legal practitioners, teachers and students, therefore, it would be of interest to the media – the defendants in the overwhelming majority of the cases-and to scholars in the social sciences.

Defamation and Freedom of Speech

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines

Pages : 394
Book Description
The book examines the law of defamation, and argues that it must be reformed in a number of ways in order to balance two important constitutional rights, the right to reputation and the right to freedom of expression. The book analyses how far the media and others should be entitled to go in reporting on important matters of public interest in society, such as corruption and misconduct in public office. It also examines where the line should be drawn between a public figure's public and private life.
