- ItemThe art of oratory in jurisprudence(Jescho Publishing House, 2022) Lubogo, Isaac C.Lawyers often speak before adjudicators, city councils, planning commissions, and give talks to civic groups, business executives, or company employees. They even give media interviews on behalf of clients. For certain individuals, it falls into place without any issues. It’s a piece of their characters. In any case, for the individuals who aren’t sure or have stage dread can generally work on speaking and oratory skills. It’s progressively essential to be a viable open speaker if you mean to be a litigator. Judges and juries will anticipate it. Restricting insight will be prepared to jump if you need certainty or on the off chance that you continually slip up when making your contentions in court. It is a highstress condition and you should be agreeable introducing your case as well as having the option to think and react quickly when being tested by your appointed authority. For attorneys, this is significantly increasingly significant. Individuals believe that since you’re a legal counsellor, you’re consequently a dauntless and splendid open speaker. We legal advisors all realize this isn’t in every case valid. This desire, however, is one motivation behind why it’s progressively significant for legal advisors to have great talking abilities than it is for some other experts. As a legal advisor, it’s important that you realize how to convince an adjudicator or council, or address a gathering of professionals, investors, or meeting members. Be that as it may, past this, legal advisors despite everything should be viable communicators in littler gatherings with clients and different lawyers. This isn’t “public speaking” as such. All things considered, the core of the lawful practice is speaking to your customer, and you can’t exclusively do this through the composed word. Regardless of whether you’re a valuebased lawyer, you’ll be aware of your client’s expectations and understand them to different gatherings and lawyers.

An analysis about the importance and need of forensic oratory in the training of the future professional of the Law major is presented, since this topic has been poorly included in the teachinglearning process of the Law students. Varied classificatory criteria are suggested in order to enhance a better theoretical Isaac Christopher Lubogo. xvii systematization for its learning and also for the development of communicative skills. Its objective is the consolidation of a more comprehensive formative process of the students in different law contexts, considering their professional profile at the university. This Book examines representations of courtroom oratory, delivery, and the speaker’s body in medieval rhetorical theory and current practice. It contests the view that medieval theorists paid little attention to judicial oratory and that they largely ignored delivery. After looking at rhetorical treatises, procedural manuals, guides to legal deportment, satiric portraits of the lawyerasrobedvulture (etc.), the Book turns to the work of four rhetorical theorists who rewrite (and upend) ancient rhetorical theory: Alcuin of York, Boncompagno da Signa, Guilhem Molinier, and Jean de Jandun. Each offers an animated account of embodied legal expression, a richly detailed evocation of the medieval courtroom, and a distinctive theory of the pleader’s body. In their work, law appears not as a set of rules or the sovereign’s fiat but as visceral, intimate bodily experience. Here, the body may appear as a divine instrument. Or, alternatively, it may appear as a material thing with a life of its own: indecorous, prone to accident, hopelessly leaky, sublimely obscene

- ItemBeyond Gender(Suigeneris Publishing House, 2024) Zion Margaret, LubogoBeyond Gender: A treatise Declaration of Humanity" by Zion Margaret Lubogo is a deeply philosophical treatise that interrogates the very foundations of gender identity and societal norms. The book challenges the entrenched paradigms that have historically marginalized women and girls, proposing a radical rethinking of gender itself. Lubogo posits that to truly achieve equality, we must transcend the binary constraints of gender and embrace a more expansive understanding of humanity. At the core of this work is a profound assertion: that our worth and potential are not defined by our gender, but by our intrinsic human dignity. Through a blend of personal narrative, historical analysis, and philosophical discourse, Lubogo dismantles the cultural, political, and social structures that perpetuate gender inequality. She draws on the lives and achievements of remarkable women, such as Simone de Beauvoir, Malala Yousafzai, and Angela Merkel, to illustrate the boundless human potential that flourishes when freed from gendered expectations. Lubogo's declaration—"I am no longer a girl, or a woman, or a female. I am now a human being"—serves as both a personal revelation and a universal call to action. It invites readers to see beyond the superficial distinctions that divide us and to recognize the shared essence that unites us all as human beings. This philosophical shift is crucial for fostering a world where true equality and justice can prevail. "Beyond Gender" is not merely a critique of existing inequalities but a visionary manifesto for a future unburdened by the limitations of gender. It is a call to embrace our full humanity and to fight for a society where every individual, regardless of gender, can achieve their highest potential. Through her eloquent and impassioned writing, Lubogo inspires readers to join in this transformative journey towards a more just and inclusive world

- ItemThe Executive Constitutional Mandate(Jescho Publishing House, 2021) Lubogo, Isaac C.The first thing I would like to ask my readers is to imagine a different President in office. If they support the current President and believe those who oppose him are doing so for partisan or otherwise illegitimate reasons, they should visualize a President whom they completely distrust. Conversely, if they dislike the current President, they should conceive of the President in power as someone they support and that those opposing him are acting illegitimately. This exercise is helpful, I believe, for focusing attention on the underlying constitutional issues rather than upon the wisdom, or lack thereof, of a particular President’s policies. Views as to whether or not an exercise of presidential power is legitimate tend to be based less upon legal abstractions than upon perceptions of the particular President in power. Someone supporting a particular President, for example, is likely to believe that parliament should not have the power to interfere with the President’s unilateral decision to send troops into armed conflict or that parliament should not have the authority to demand the President to extend or remove his term limits. Conversely, someone who believes a President’s agenda is improperly motivated or illadvised is more likely to support constitutional principles that provide significant checks and balances upon the President’s exercise of power. In this way, views on presidential power tend to be more variable than views on other constitutional issues because they intuitively relate to who is in power in a way that views on other controversial constitutional issues such as freedom of speech and assembly, or freedom of religion do not. For this reason, this book on presidential power is well timed. Because the question of who will hold the Presidency after the next election should always be much in doubt, this is the perfect opportunity to examine the nature of presidential power as an abstract matter, rather than as a criticism or as an apologia of a specific President’s actions. This is what I intend to do in this book. Specifically, I contend that the power of the Presidency has been expanding since the founding, and that we need to consider the implications of this expansion within the constitutional structure of separation of powers. No matter which party controls power. This book makes the descriptive case by briefly canvassing a series of factors that have had, and continue to have, the effect of expanding presidential power. It further suggests this expansion in presidential power has created a constitutional imbalance between the executive and legislative branches, calling into doubt the continued efficacy of the structure of separation of powers set forth by the Framers. The book offers some suggestions as to how this power imbalance can be alleviated, but it does not present a silver bullet solution. Because many, if not all, the factors that have led to increased presidential power are the products of greed and selfish needs. Thus, this book ends with only the modest conclusion that regardless of who wins the Presidency, it is critical that those on both sides of the aisle work to assure that the growth in presidential power is at least checked, if not reversed.
- ItemExorcising the inexorcible Buganda ghost(Jescho Publishing House, 2022) Lubogo, Isaac C.Exorcising the inexorcible Buganda ghost: Hoodwinked, dumped, used and re-dumped; A quest for Buganda's cause for Buganda's independence. Buganda in response to their proposals, were invariably faced either cynical deception. What went wrong? Where did this insolent manner of talking down from the height of their exceptionalism, infallibility and all-permissiveness come from? What is the explanation for this contemptuous and disdainful attitude to Buganda interests and absolutely legitimate demands? Buganda has grown weaker and subsequently broken apart. That experience should serve as a good lesson for Buganda because it has shown us that the paralysis of power and will is the first step towards complete degradation and oblivion. Buganda lost confidence for only one moment, but it was enough to disrupt the balance of forces in the Uganda. As a result, this book will argue that the old treaties and agreements are no longer effective. Entreaties and requests do not help. Anything that does not suit the dominant state, the powers that be, is denounced as archaic, obsolete and useless. This redivision of the world, and the norms of international law that developed by that time and the most important of them, the fundamental norms that were adopted following WWII and largely formalised its outcome came in the way of those who declared themselves the "bread servers" under the scramble and partition of Africa. Of course, practice, international relations and the rules regulating them had to consider the changes that took place in the world and in the balance of forces, especially the 1900 Buganda agreement, should have been done professionally, smoothly, patiently, and with due regard and respect for the Exorcising the inexorcible Buganda ghost: Hoodwinked, Dumped, Used and re-dumped; A quest for Buganda's cause for Buganda's independence. xi interests of all states and one’s own responsibility. Instead, we see a state of euphoria created by the feeling of absolute superiority, a kind of modern absolutism, coupled with the low cultural standards and arrogance of those who formulated and pushed through decisions that suited only themselves. The situation takes different turn. These Western colleagues (and their cronies) prefer to forget what they did, and when we mention the event, they prefer to avoid speaking about international law, instead emphasising the circumstances which they interpret as they think necessary. This so called 1900 buganda agreement has pushed Uganda towards a humanitarian catastrophe and into the vortex of a civil war, which has continued up today. The type of colonial con-artist behaviour was contrary not only to the principles of international relations but also and above all to the generally recognised norms of state sovereignty they used devide and rule. This book offers no illusions in this regard and is extremely realistic in my assessment, further expansions of the Chinese influence deepen the Buganda question even more. For the colonialist it was obvious geopolitical dividends, for our country, it is a matter of life and death, a matter of our historical future as a nation. The Buganda question is not an exaggeration; this is a fact; it is not only a very real threat to our interests but to the very existence of our state Uganda and to its sovereignty. No doubts several red lines have been stepped over on numerous occasions. The cause and effect are that there should be no "staged coup" like the backfired " coffin cake " saga and third Kabaka crisis only and only ornamental election procedures towards the path of peace should be pursued. Buganda all must and should be done by peaceful political means.

- ItemFreedom through law(Jescho Publishing House, 2021-07) Lubogo, Isaac C.If the legal system or a particular law is wrong or not good enough, and should be changed: if that is against the law, then the law is an ass – an idiot….said of a law that one thinks is unnecessary or ridiculous. The phrase comes from Charles dickens Novel Oliver twist this opinion was expressed by Mr. Bumble, when he learned from Mr. Brownlow that, under Victorian law, he was responsible for actions carried out by his wife. His words and action vividly convey the extent of his indignation when he apprised of this legal fact, if that’s the eye of the law, the law is a bachelor: and the worst I wish the law is that his eye may be opened by experience. (Resonate with changing society) This is the very purpose of this book the law should be seen to resonate with changing society not a dogma for if we fail to do so then to use Shakespeare’s exact line by the famous plotter of treachery “ the first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers” this was stated by dick the butcher in Henry VI part II, Act IV, Scene II, LINE 73 Dick the Butcher was a follower of the rebel Jack Cade, who thought that if he disturbed law order, he could become king. Shakespeare meant it as a compliment to attorneys and judges who instill justice in society. It is among Shakespeare's most famous lines, as well as one of his most controversial. Shakespeare may be making a joke when character "Dick the Butcher" suggests one of the ways the band of pretenders to the throne can improve the country is to kill all the lawyers. Dick is a rough character, a killer as evil as his name implies like the other henchmen, and this is his rough solution to his perceived societal problem. The line has been interpreted in different ways: criticism of how lawyers maintain the privilege of the wealthy and powerful; implicit praise of how lawyers(law) emphasis added stand in the way of violent mobs; and criticism of bureaucracy and perversions of the rule of law under THE NAME OF DOGMA.
- ItemHistory of Busoga(Designed, printed & published by Marianum Press Ltd., 2020) Lubogo, Isaac C.This “History of Busoga” is a translation of the original work of Mr. Y.K. Lubogo which was written in Luganda between 1921 and 1938. While considerable effort has been made to produce a readable English version, the objective of the translation is to preserve the content and style of the original work rather than produce a literary work. The facts and figures given were set forth by the Literature Committee. It is a pity that such a long delay has occurred between the completion of the manuscript and the publication of the book. Nevertheless, it is fortunate that this newly constituted Literature Committee has been able to produce for distribution the result of so many years hard work by the author. Since there has been this lapse in time between the writing of the original work and the appearance of this edition “The History of Busoga” is far from up-to-date and readers have to remember that when the author refers to “present day conditions”, he naturally means at the time he was writing; some time prior to 1939.
- ItemHow to Get Away With Murder: Bentham's and Mill's Utilitarianism Jurisprudence(SuiGeneris Publishing House, 2024) Lubogo, Christopher Isaac"Navigating the Abyss of Utilitarian Ethics: An In-Depth Examination of 'How to Get Away with Murder: Bentham's and Mill's Utilitarianism Jurisprudence' by Isaac Christopher Lubogo" Isaac Christopher Lubogo's magnum opus, "How to Get Away with Murder: Bentham's and Mill's Utilitarianism Jurisprudence," unfurls an intellectual odyssey that propels us into the heart of a philosophical maelstrom. In this profound exploration, Lubogo beckons the reader to embark on a philosophical pilgrimage through the tumultuous seas of utilitarian ethics, anchored in the notorious Mignonette case, transcending temporal boundaries to scrutinize the very fabric of human morality. The book initiates its journey with a meticulous unveiling of the seminal utilitarian philosophies of Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. Lubogo's eloquent exposition unveils the intricate tapestry woven by these philosophical giants, laying bare the essence of their respective doctrines. This elucidation serves as an indispensable compass, guiding the reader into the labyrinthine depths of utilitarianism, where moral compasses are calibrated to maximize happiness and minimize suffering. The apotheosis of Lubogo's voyage is the examination of the Mignonette case—a catastrophic maritime calamity that tests the bounds of human morality. The survivors, faced with the excruciating decision of resorting to cannibalism for survival, become unwitting avatars of Bentham's and Mill's utilitarian principles. Lubogo, with meticulous erudition, deconstructs the moral calculus of the shipwrecked souls, invoking a profound moral and ethical reckoning for his readers. Herein lies Lubogo's quintessential brilliance: he refrains from being a didactic arbiter of morality but instead beckons the reader to partake in the dialectical dance between Benthamite and Millian utilitarianism. The reader, like a solitary Prometheus unbound, is left to grapple with the profound ethical conundrum presented by the Mignonette case. Lubogo orchestrates a symphony of moral ambivalence, challenging readers to introspectively navigate the labyrinthine corridors of their own moral landscapes. Yet, amidst this philosophical voyage, the book remains a beacon of clarity. Lubogo's prose, poetic and profound, is a salient testament to his command over complex philosophical concepts. He conjures a literary alchemy that transmutes intricate philosophical discourse into the reader's intellectual treasury, rendering even the most enigmatic of ideas accessible. Nonetheless, Lubogo's opus is not without its limitations. Readers desiring a more exhaustive exploration of the contemporary ramifications of utilitarian ethics in jurisprudence may find themselves yearning for a more expansive discourse. Furthermore, a broader examination of alternative ethical frameworks and their interplay with utilitarianism could have further enriched the narrative. In summation, "How to Get Away with Murder: Bentham's and Mill's Utilitarianism Jurisprudence" by Isaac Christopher Lubogo is nothing short of a philosophical odyssey. It beckons readers to grapple with the profound dilemmas of human morality, utilizing the Mignonette case as its ethical crucible. Lubogo's eloquent and profound discourse challenges us to traverse the labyrinthine corridors of utilitarian ethics, offering us glimpses into the very essence of our moral compasses. This is a book not merely to be read but to be absorbed, contemplated, and woven into the very fabric of one's intellectual journey—a beacon in the tempest of philosophical discourse.

- ItemInnovative teaching-learning at postgraduate level: An advocacy, a creative pedagogy package from actual experience and experimentation(GRIN Verlag, 2015) Sumil, NovembrietaEach educator has his/her strengths and preferences when managing a classroom scenario. Ideally, an effective educator should possess a variety of teaching techniques to accommodate students’ learning needs. There may not be one single best approach to teaching as there is more need for flexible teaching approaches. The prevailing scenario in the educational arena nowadays is where the teacher is no longer an authoritative figure in the students’ learning but rather an enabler. Organizing a course into meaningful bits of activities, situations and experiences will be better absorbed and lasts indefinitely in every learner’s academic life. Further, in this context, the course is taught better and the students learn more if the students themselves are involved in their learning. Innovative teaching-learning addresses the challenge of a paradigm shift from the traditional and conservative ways towards creating an educational climate for the learners to take more responsibility of their own learning in an academic environment where they find more meaning. Creative pedagogy is innovative art of teaching categorized as theatre based that greatly involves the student in his learning to develop him into a self-reliant, responsible, critically minded and creative character or actor in the theatre of learning. At the forefront are approaches that provide learning materials, situations, activities and experiences to enable the learners to acquire knowledge, attitude, values, habits, skills in critical thinking, decision-making, self-direction, self-reliance, mechanical manipulation and bodily movement.

- ItemIntelligent design and the African ontological and epistemological aesthetics(Jescho Publishing House, 2021) Lubogo, Isaac C.The intention of this book is to affirm the exixtence of an African God (if there is anything like that); God the maker of a dynamaic universe. In this book, I analyse the mtyhs of various African peoples who relate that after setting the world in motion, the Supreme Being withdrew and remains “remote” from the concerns of human life or better perhaps set his paradigms in which (we call mankind) could reach him through different metaphors, call them different religions. The elementary concepts of British justice are a part of the essentials of civilization that we bring to Africa along with vaccinations and drains and literacy and God (Emphasis added) This book focuses on how the idea of God(s) permeated the legal ideology of the Africa’s nascent states. During the colonial period, it debated the best way to instil the principles of English justice in “savage” and “barbarous” peoples. Africa, the Gold-land compressed within itself-the land of childhood, which lying beyond the day of self-conscious history, is enveloped in the dark nature of night. This book also begs the need to better understand the origins of the continent. For example, where did the name Africa originate from? This question has attracted various schools of thought in the quest to establish how the name Africa came to be. A certain school of thought argues that the name Africa never originated from within the people and her people were never associated with the name. In fact, this school argues that Africa was initially named Alkebulan and was widely referred to as Alkebulan before the name Africa was conjured. In Kemetic History of Afrika, Dr cheikh Anah Diop writes, “The ancient name of Africa was Alkebulan. Alkebu-lan “mother of mankind” or “garden of Eden”.” Alkebulan is the oldest and the only word of indigenous origin. It was used by the Moors, Nubians, Numidians, Khart-Haddans (Carthagenians), and Ethiopians. Africa, the current misnomer adopted by almost everyone today, was given to this continent by the ancient Greeks and Romans.” He further postulates in sync with historians in this school that the continent was also called, by many names aside Alkebulan. These names include Ortigia, Corphye, Libya, and Ethiopia.
