Despite the existence of international regulations and strong worldwide cooperation, countermeasures and international response efforts are often hindered by enforcement and jurisdictional issues, as well as online asset recovery complexity. This work investigates the blockages to the accomplishment of cyber laundering regulation and enforcement at the international level. It provides strong legal recommendations for fostering the construction of more efficient means of legal implementation.Item Enhancing Co-operation among African Law Schools: Comparative Law Studies within the African Context(Centre for Human Rights, 1993) Kibwana, KivuthaItem Law and the Quest for Gender Equality in Kenya(Claripress Ltd, 2000) Kibwana, Kivutha; Mute, Lawrence M.Item Law and the struggle for democracy in East Africa(Claripress Ltd, 1996) Oloka-Onyango, Joseph; Kibwana, Kivutha; Peter, Chris MainaItem HIV / AIDS and the law in Kenya: preliminary observations(Institute of Development Studies, 1992) Kibwana, KivuthaItem Women and Autonomy in Kenya: Law Reform and the Quest for Gender Equality(Centre for Law and Research International, 1994) Kibwana, Kivutha; Owiti, OkechItem Women's Initiatives in Kenya's Democratization:Capacity Building and Participation in the December 1992 Multi-party General Elections(Institute of Diplomacy and International Studies, 1993) Nzomo, Maria; Kibwana, KivuthaItem Sowing the Constitutional Seed in Kenya(Claripress Ltd, 1996) Kibwana, KivuthaItem Law and the Status of Women in Kenya: the Example of Laikipia District(Institute for Development Studies, 1992) Kibwana, KivuthaThis paper explores the question: how does law affect women's participation in development in Kenya generally and Laikipia District in particular within the framework of economic, social, cultural and related factors. Thus it seeks to determine the nature extent and impact of gender discrimination against women from a legal stand-point. Through field data obtained in Laikipia, three types of legal constraints - constraints emanating from legal sanction, ineffectual law and legal lacunae which undermine women's participation in development are identified. Finally, a reform agenda is proposed. In the paper, an attempt is made to examine the legal problems encountered by: : women en masse : upper and middle class women : peasant and working class women (working women) due to a) general exploitation of working class people in a capitalist system b) exploitation and discrimination by upper and middle class men and women c) exploitation and discrimination by oppressed and exploited spouse or "boy-friend" and his relatives. It is concluded, inter alia, that because women in both rural and urban settings hardly have land rights, credit, employment or business opportunities, their independent contribution to free enterprise development is significantly curtailed. Further women's participation in development would be enhanced if there was a guarantee of personal access to the fruits of their labour. By distancing women from the means of production and the products of their labour, society pays by having a lower level of development than would otherwise occur.Item Women and the Constitution in Kenya(Verfassung Und Recht in Übersee, 1992) Kibwana, KivuthaItem These Words: An Anthology of Poems(One Planet Publishing & Media Services Limited, 2021) Kibwana, KivuthaItem Women and autonomy in Kenya: policy and legal framework(Claripress Ltd, 1995) Kibwana, KivuthaItem Constitutionalism in East Africa: Progress, Challenges and Prospects In 1999(Fountain Publishers, 2001) Kibwana, Kivutha; Maina, Peter Chris; Nyangabyaki, BazaaraThese essays by East African university professors of law, trace the course of constitutional development in East Africa since independence, and analyse the trends of constitutionalism in 1999.
