Abstract
This book, Sexual Harassment and the Law, covers a variety of issues on sexual harassment. This includes the nature, concept and dynamics of sexual harassment. The book provides insight about sexual harassment amidst legal practitioners, being a microcosm of the society, through the meticulous utilisation of qualitative, quantitative and doctrinal research methodologies. It discusses the legal and regulatory frameworks of sexual harassment in selected countries such as Nigeria, Canada, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia, India, and the United States of America, among others. Furthermore, the book enunciates templates policies and guidelines that may be put in place by employers of labour in the public and private sectors of the society to whittle down or prevent the occurrence of sexual harassment. The authors hope this book will not only serve as a resource material on the subject of sexual harassment but herald conscious and strategic reforms in Nigeria, as well as across the globe. This is what a prominent Professor of African Studies, King’s College London, United Kingdom has to say about the book: “…The book will also add to the body of serious scholarly writings that have taken a bold step to offer critical multi-dimensional perspective to the sexual harassment phenomenon. It is against all this background that I very warmly welcome and recommend Sexual Harassment and the Law, written by Dr. Adetutu D. Aina-Pelemo and Dr. Paul Adole Ejembi. It is urbanely written and carefully woven together and it will put us in their debt for quite a long time to come”.
