"This is an excellent interdisciplinary exposition on the African regional human rights system, especially with its distinct application of 'institutional theory' to the discourse. Covering the historical, evolutional, and future directions of the African regional human rights system, this volume is a valuable addition to the literature on the subject and a recommended read."--Mashood Baderin, Professor of Law and Head of the School of Law, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London
