Founding the Constitution of Uganda

This book attempts to collect together a number of essays and materials on some aspects of Constitution-making. The book is divided into three parts, the first of which deals with Constitutionalism generally. The second part is dedicated to civil liberties and economic rights, namely fundamental human rights, land, and taxation. The last part of the book is dedicated to the Judiciary and its performance as the guardian of the Constitution. A synoptic table of the 1967 Constitution and the DC is included for purposes of general structure comparison. The book is thus designed to provide basic materials to any disinterested reader of literature on public affairs or civic studies in Uganda.

Swearing by Kenya: The Unfolding of a New Constitution

KShs3,480.00

Swearing by Kenya brings forth the virtues and vices, the far-reaching vision and narrow viewpoints, the truth, and lies, the struggles and defeats, that guided prominent men and women in what may be considered, so far, the most dramatic and exciting chapter of independent Kenya. This book is bound to stir some, annoy a few and make others rejoice; only the unthinking reader will remain untouched. Lumumba has managed to pen down historical and verifiable facts without judging or attacking the sacrosanct realm of the personal internal forum of the persons involved.
