 Hello, I am Professor Masheed Padema. Hi, I'm Dr. Olivia Robokona. In this short video, we intend to introduce the SOS, University of London School of Law LLM module online development in Africa. Okay, the actual content of the module is divided into at least five main sections. The first one includes the introduction of conceptual issues. So we deal with conceptual issues related to the law and development discussion within Africa, and these include engagements with traditional conceptions of law and development, the scope and limits of law and development, specifically from a critical perspective and the application to the African context. And then we look at new approaches for development in Africa. The second section looks at law and human development, and we engage with various topics of human development and the interaction with law in Africa. And the topics do vary depending on the year. Then the third section deals with law and socio-political development in Africa and engages with various aspects including governance, conflict and resource control, corporate social responsibilities as well as civil society. Then the last two sections deal with law and economic development in Africa and deal with aspects of economic development and the engagement with law including issues of trade, agriculture and technological advancements, corruption and financial regulation in Africa. The last section is more explorative and looks at applications of law and development concepts within the African context, looking at the national application, regional application as well as international applications of law and development initiatives and how they've been employed on the African continent and also how they've been deployed and where the limitations and challenges lie. So basically in short that is the structure of the course and we hope you will enjoy it. The module is a full year module and it has two elements of assessment. The first element of assessment is a 4,000 word essay which is submitted in the first term. Students will have an option of choosing a topic of their choice within the course by agreement with the lecturers or alternatively will give two alternative questions which students can select from and this is weighted 50% of the assessment. The second element of assessment is taken at the end of the course which is an exam whereby students will write a three hour exam. It will be expected to answer three questions out of a selection of about between nine and ten questions and this is also assessed at 50% of the assessment. During the seminar students will also be expected to do some presentations. These are not assessed so we hope you will enjoy the course. This is a very unique module which conceptualizes a specific law and development argument for Africa. It engages and interrogates the traditional law and development discourse and tries to see how law can play a role in development in Africa. It challenges some of the traditional arguments in law and development. The module will obviously be of interest to LLM students as well as MA students. Those with an interest in development and law because it interacts with both and I'm sure both groups will enjoy the module very much. We hope to see you next year.
