Recenzii
Dr Kolawole Olaniyan, a seasoned legal guru and anticorruption and human rights lawyer, has meticulously explored the important issues of ownership of proceeds of corruption and highlighted the inadequacies in the current legal rules and implementation mechanisms on asset recovery... Dr Olaniyan's book makes a compelling case for why the global efforts to prevent and combat corruption and advance human rights must be reinvigorated, refreshed, and revised to meet contemporary challenges. The book could not have arrived at a better time. This unique and important book is a great resource which should be embraced by all stakeholders; its scope is remarkable, and the suggested remedies could change the narrative in asset recovery.
The global fight against corruption can only be effective when upon eventual recovery of its proceeds, the owners (the people) become real beneficiaries. In its absence, the fight will continue to be a rhetorical sing-song, rather deafening with no soothing sound to the victims. While identifying the complex legal and practical challenges to asset recovery, Dr Olaniyan characteristically proffers well-thought-out suggestions for reforms which if implemented will be a welcome relief to victims denied of their natural wealth and resources...For this treatise, Dr Olaniyan deserves our applause. All victims of corruption are indeed indebted.
The recognition that corruption in all its forms is a major obstacle to development and enjoyment of human rights is well and long documented in literature...Recognition, however, is not necessarily followed by the development of effective legal rules and mechanisms. Finally, Kolawole Olaniyan, an astute scholar and experienced practitioner on anticorruption and human rights law issues, has come up with an excellent and important analysis of the understanding of the complex issues of corruption, asset recovery and human rights.
In Ownership of Proceeds of Corruption in International Law, Dr Kolawole Olaniyan raises provocative questions that entities and individuals in the space of preventing and combatting all forms of corruption in domestic and international jurisdictions need to think deeply about...This timely book breaks new grounds and would be a very useful resource to scholars, private sector actors, and policy makers alike.
This book offers an original academic but also practitioner perspective on the interplay between the legal rules on asset recovery and human rights law. Dr Olaniyan innovatively applies an international human rights law framework to issues of ownership of proceeds of corruption and in so doing advances the idea of access of victims to effective remedies.
