Abstract

Reinventing Issues of Law and Justice, Counterterrorism, Correctional Matters in African Criminology and Criminal Justice The authors of this Issue examined burning and contemporary criminal justice matters affecting Africa. While these articles focus on Nigeria, they generally have legal and criminal justice implications for Africa. Africa still faces many dilemmas in finding ways to eliminate terrorism from below and above, causing enormous havoc for political, economic, cultural, and religious instabilities. The correctional systems in some of the African States have also failed in sustaining systems of correctional facilities that respect the tenets of human rights. Additionally, businesses and companies hesitate to do business in Nigeria due to inadequate arbitration rules that favor promising ethical and industrial management modalities. Society is stagnant, and the youths and citizens are not safe and suffer the continuous hemorrhage of surplus populations.
