| Summary, etc. | About the publication While the harmonisation of the rules on the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments has been given priority in other regional economic communities, in particular the European Union, any similar effort to harmonise the rules on recognition and enforcement of member states has been conspicuously absent in the SACU, and in fact the most of the African continent – a situation which needs to receive immediate attention. This book considers the approaches followed by a number of international and regional organisations, including the EU, the USA, Australia and New Zealand and Latin American States, with a view to identifying the most suitable approach to be adopted for the SACU.
