The Commonwealth can be justifiably proud of being the only international organisation with a consolidated set of principles governing the relation between the three branches of government. Covering subjects such as the harmonious balancing of power between the three branches, and how they should interact in the kind of democratic societies which the Commonwealth seeks to uphold, the Principles stipulate that there should be restraint in the exercise of power within each respective sphere in order not to encroach upon the legitimate discharge of constitutional functions by others. This Compendium on the appointment, tenure and removal of judges in the Commonwealth outlines the various constitutional arrangements in Commonwealth member states, and makes recommendations. It also indicates best practice in the appointment, security of tenure, and removal of judges in light of the Latimer House Principles. It analyses statistics, soft law instruments, commentaries, and recent developments, as well as the composition and workings of judicial appointments commissions in Commonwealth member states. Our hope is that the best practices shared in this publication, and other agreed Commonwealth values and principles, will assist member states in formulating legislative and institutional policy, and with strengthening independence and accountability in the relationships between the three branches of government. This Compendium makes clear that legal frameworks are not the only factors determining the extent to which judges in the Commonwealth are ix Comp of Judicial Proj_Prelims (new) 26/6/15 09:33 Page x FOREWORD able to act effectively and independently in discharging their functions. Other influences include the extent to which a culture of the rule of law pervades branches of the state and the wider public; the competence and independence of the wider legal profession; the provision of legal educa- tion and judicial training; efforts to ensure equality of opportunity and a pool of applicants for judicial office that broadly reflects the society; the resourcing of the justice system and settled understandings about the appropriate interaction between judges, elected politicians and the media; appropriate legal immunities for judges when performing their judicial functions; and, a balance between institutional autonomy and the protec- tion of the independence of individual judges. A truly democratic spirit also has to inform the letter of the rules. Our Commonwealth Charter states: We believe in the rule of law as an essential protection for the people of the Commonwealth and as an assurance of limited and accountable government. In particular we support an independent, impartial, honest and competent judi- ciary and recognise that an independent, effective and competent legal system is integral to upholding the rule of law, engendering public confidence and dispensing justice. Accordingly, the Compendium stresses the importance of judiciaries that are independent, impartial and efficient. If the rule of law is to be respected, it is necessary to have fair and impartial processes for resolv- ing disputes; for correct and clear interpretation and application of the law; and, for holding governments, institutions, and private individuals accountable. As a values-based organisation, the Commonwealth works to advocate and uphold collectively agreed values and principles. We recognise the need for each

    Autocratic Courts in Africa By Fiona Feiang Shen-Bayh A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philsophy in Political Science in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leonardo Arriola, Chair Assistant Professor Aila Matanock Professor T.J. Pempel Professor Jason Wittenberg Professor Saira Mohamed Spring 2018 Abstract Autocratic Courts in Africa by Fiona Feiang Shen-Bayh Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Leonardo Arriola, Chair This dissertation examines how judicial institutions in sub-Saharan Africa were used to both legitimize repression and maintain autocratic survival during the postcolonial period, as well as the enduring legacies of these tactics on post-autocratic rule of law. When autocrats turn to courts, these moves are often heralded as signs of democratic opening. However, courts can also become forums of repression, where political rivals are criminally prosecuted for anti-regime behavior. Despite these trends, courts remain relatively understudied in repression research. In fact, conventional definitions of repression are almost exclusively extrajudicial, defined as the arbitrary use of coercive violence to threaten or intimidate its target. While a separate scholarship on authoritarian judiciaries draws attention to the autocratic functions of law and order, these findings tend to be disconnected from research on repression. This has limited theory-building on how and why courts are used to contain democratic dissent. To analyze the politicization of courts in comparative and historical perspective, I develop a theoretical framework that extends beyond conventional notions of judicial independence, re- conceptualizing judicial power along the following three dimensions: jurisdiction, function, and compliance.

  • The Role of the Supreme Court in the Development of Constitutional Law in Ghana
    THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA i THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LAW – LLD at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER PROFESSOR B P WANDA 1 February 2005 ii ABSTRACT The Theme running through this Dissertation is intended to prove that the Supreme Court has a role to play in the promotion, enforcement and sustenance of a proper democratic system of government, good governance and fundamental human rights and freedoms in Ghana. The Study would therefore address the role of the Supreme Court in the development of Constitutional Law in Ghana, with particular emphasis on the court’s contribution to the underlying concepts of the Fourth Republican Constitution of 1992; the guiding principles of constitutional interpretation and the vexed issue of whether the court should adopt a mechanical and literal approach to the interpretation of the Constitution or adopt a liberal, beneficent and purposive approach. The Supreme Court has asserted in the locus classicus decision: Tuffuor v Attorney-General [1980] GLR 637 that the 1979 Constitution as the supreme law, must be construed as a living political document capable of growth. Is there any evidence now to support that claim? The study shall also investigate the question of the power of the Supreme Court to review legislative and executive action. We shall also examine the role of the Supreme Court in the interpretation and enforcement of the Constitution and Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms in relation to the rights and obligations of the individual and the State with the view to achieving good governance.

The series is meant to circulate (among research students, university staffs, and other interested persons) a body of writing on various subjects which is always being put out by members of academic institutions like the LAE but seldom getting published for general circulation. By the establishment of this series we hope we have embarked upon a corrective process, and that these monographs will serve the purpose of supplying a quantity of background material to many research subjects. They will not all, or always, be learned papers according to the strict academic definition of the term; they are not planned to be such, though some will in fact be learned and/or scholarly; many will be purely narrative or descriptive.
