Inhaltsangabe

This book is the end-product of a research conducted on the role of chieftaincy institutions in dispute resolution in Ghana with a special focus on Brong-Ahafo Regional House of Chiefs in Ghana. Over the past decades, efforts have been made and continues to be made to improve access to justice for all including the training and enrolment of more lawyers to the Ghana Bar annually, provision of legal aids, review of outmoded laws, the introduction of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms and the introduction of binding guidelines for ethical judicial conducts. More often than not, there is delay in resolution of disputes within the judiciary. Besides the perceived corrupt nature of the judiciary, the cost of legal processes is mostly huge and often unaffordable to the poor. As a result, there has been the need for other conflict resolution mechanisms such as the chieftaincy institution to complement the efforts of the modern judiciary in conflict resolution.
