This comprehensive Commentary on the Maputo Protocol, the first of its kind, provides systematic analysis of each article of the Protocol, delving into the drafting history, and elaborating on relevant key concepts and normative standards.This Commentary aims to be a 'one-stop-shop' for anyone interested in the Maputo Protocol, such as researchers, teachers, students, practitioners,policymakers and activists."--Publisher's description.
