Abstract | The paper aims at analysing how postcolonial nations can cope with colonial legal remnants and fulfil the goal of the modern criminal law. It looks at the colonial legal systems as well as the colonial legacy that is felt even to this date. This paper assesses the effectiveness and the problems faced in the journey towards justice and equality by assessing some of the major legal reforms. The research method applied in the paper is comparative, with both qualitative and quantitative approaches used, and case studies from different countries. Thus, the positive measures that have been taken are revealed, as well as the colonial heritage that hampers the development. The paper offers ideas for further change and underlines the importance of international institutions and practices based on communities concerning these problems. Thus, the research enhances the knowledge of legal change in post-colonial settings and provides recommendations on how colonial legal systems might be successfully disassembled. |
