Whenever a people
stay together, they cultivate their own style of living, covering food they
eat, to types of shelter, personal relationships and institutions to provide
services to the people; and such a system existed amongst the Luo people of
Kenya. And when the people meet new people, out of force, or contract, their
style of life is changed, and so happened to the Luo people on the contact with
the European culture and colonization. Of course, the imperialist Europeans
considered the existing style of life uncivilized, backward and savage and the
people less intelligent. This book is a comparative analysis of Luo people’s
jurisprudence, taking an analytical look at the theories of law and justice;
the institutions of making the law, implementing the law and solving disputes;
and the procedures of making the law, implementing the law, and solving
disputes.
