Women and custom in Namibia: Cultural practice versus gender equality?
Women and custom in Namibia brings together various articles that shed light from different angles on the relationship between customary law and practice, and the concept of human rights and gender equality. The insights into customs that are of specific relevance for the role and status accorded to women ñ such as polygyny, lobola, and rules of inheritance ñ and which are still a living reality in many traditional communities in Namibia, provide the basis for legal and socio-economic considerations. These legal considerations address the gap between customary and statutory law in Namibia, recent relevant developments in the process of law reform, and judicial reflections on women and custom in Namibia.
