Africa, English-speaking, Administrative procedure, Administrative courts, Administrative law, Judicial review of administrative acts 

"In the age of democratic constitutional government, every citizen expects to be treated fairly by the public administration. Constitutions adopted after 1990 have increasingly contained provisions that oblige the public administration to act lawfully, reasonably and procedurally fairly, and frequently grant citizens the legal right to seek review of administrative action affecting them. Southern African nations have led the way in this movement, closely followed by those in East Africa. This book brings together critical accounts of the development of the broad administrative justice landscape in seven national jurisdictions located in these regions. It does this by analysing trends in the review authority and practice of the superior courts, as well as significant developments in non-judicial monitoring institutions, such as ombuds offices, human rights commissions, and mechanisms to access official information."--Back cover.
