Introduction -- Problematising the issue of constitutional implementation in Africa -- Country case studies -- Constitutional implementation : the Nigerian experience -- Constitutional implementation : the Swaziland experience -- Three years into the implementation of the Zimbabwean constitution of 2013 : progress, challenges, prospects and lessons -- Constitutional implementation 20 years later : the Uganda report card -- The role of civil society organisations and the Chapter 9 institutions in implementing South Africa's constitution -- Women's rights and gender equality in the new Zimbabwean constitution : the role of civil society in implementation and compliance -- The use of specialised commissions for constitutional implementation : an insider view of the Kenyan CIC -- The use of specialised commissions for constitutional implementation : an outsider view of the Kenyan CIC -- Constitutional implementation in perspective : developing a sustainable normative constitutional implementation framework.. - The authors try to identify obstacles to constitutional implementation in Africa and, on the basis of good practice, assess how this could be overcome. A single volume like this cannot unravel the complexity of the causes and effects of, and solutions to, the problem of non-implementation of constitutions in Africa: the subject is far too intricate. Nevertheless, this study, represents a first attempt to draw attention to the issue, and hopes to open a serious debate about it and pave the way for making this issue an integral consideration in constitution-building in the future. --
