About the Journal
The Carnelian Journal of Law & Politics is a peer-reviewed, bi-annual, interdisciplinary, open access journal with a focus on constitutional law, human rights, democracy, international law, legal and political theory, public policy, political science, international relations and sociology of law in the context of Africa.
The Carnelian Journal of Law & Politics is published by the Babcock University School of Law & Security Studies, Ogun State, Nigeria. The periodical was a response to the dearth of interdisciplinary approaches to the study of law and politics within the context of Africa. Setting out to be the foremost African journal on law and politics, it publishes high quality research on law and politics from African early career researchers, both within the continent and in the diaspora. Being an interdisciplinary journal, empirical research is highly encouraged as much as theoretical approaches, while it provides a platform for rigorous analyses in its focus areas.
The Carnelian Journal of Law and Politics journal is only available in an electronic form.
