Abstract EN:
Under colonization, different systems of culture and civilization have coexisted on the same land, the colonizer having generally allowed the local institutions and customary or native systems of courts to subsist. He also introduced legislations and modern european systems of courts (french or english). The decolonization has restored the sovereignty of the african countries. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the leading lines of the judicial institutions of black africa since the decolonization trying moreover to bring out a typology which distinguishes between legislations which have perfected the evolution towards modernity, the legislations which have kept together the two systems of courts and those in which customary or native justice would become predominant again. The thesis aims to point out the reasons and explanations which have given rise to such a situation.
Abstract FR:
La colonisation a fait vivre sur le meme sol des politiques de cultures et de civilisations differentes, le colonisateur ayant, en general, laisse subsister les institutions judiciaires traditionnelles et introduire les institutions modernes de type europeen (francais ou anglais). La decolonisation a restaure la souverainete des etats. Notre etude tend a montrer les lignes directrices des institutions judiciaires d'afrique noire depuis la decolonisation, en essayant, par ailleurs, de degager une typologie qui distingue entre les legislations qui ont paracheve l'evolution dans le sens de la modernite, celles qui ont maintenu en coexistence la pluralite des deux types de justice et celles ou la justice traditionnelle redeviendrait predominante. On a cherche a etablir les raisons et les explications qui ont donne lieu a pareille situation.
