This text critically examines the role and relevance of
international human rights law in the process of protection, especially in the cases of
Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe. It argues that international human rights law does have
a role to play in the protection and, indeed the enforcement of human rights in these
countries and that there is an emerging trend to that effect.
