"A timely new academic publication has joined South Africa’s shelves of legal scholarship. Commercial Law and Related Issues: A Review of Contemporary Legal Issues and Regulatory Development in South Africa and Selected Jurisdictions, published by Juta, was officially launched during a recent legal research conference at the Potchefstroom Campus of the North-West University (NWU). The launch by Juta formed part of the second Annual International Banking, Competition & Corporate Law (BCCL) Conference that took place from 13 to 15 August. The event featured contributions from endorsers, editors and authors discussing the relevance and perspectives presented in the book. The book, edited by Prof Howard Chitimira, Prof Moses Retselisitsoe Phooko and Prof Tapiwa Victor Warikandwa, delves into pressing areas of law, regulation and society. With contributions from across South Africa and beyond, the book is set to become a reference point for scholars, practitioners and policymakers seeking insight into contemporary commercial law. Key themes include financial regulation (frameworks for financial inclusion and consumer protection in South Africa and Zimbabwe), digital economies, trade and integration, empowerment and transformation, and cross-jurisdictional perspectives. Together, the 13 chapters showcase how commercial law intersects with technology, trade, regulation and social justice. The publication seeks to evoke debates and discussions on how legal education, scholarship and practice can develop and adapt to new, complex and controversial issues informing legal education, writing and practices. According to the authors, the book is a useful read for policymakers, students, legal practitioners and academics focusing on multidisciplinary research and development."--
