摘要

摘要法律界人士与非法律界人士之间的沟通差距还有很多需要解释的地方。本研究通过研究尼日利亚最高法院的10项裁决，特别是尼日利亚军事政权侵犯人权案件的结果，调查了书面法律文件的技术性。使用通用结构潜在元素对九个有目的地选择的摘录进行了分析。分析产生了九个要素，其中五个是强制性的，另外四个是可选的。强制性内容包括审查下级法院诉讼、复制问题、向当局提交、当局的申请和最终裁决。可供选择的要素包括事实审查、答辩书复制、证据分析和论点分析。本研究的结论是，类属结构潜势是一个有用的理论来解开复杂文本的神秘面纱。

An Analysis of Selected Supreme Court Rulings on Human Rights Violation in Nigeria

Abstract Communication gaps between members of the legal profession and people outside the profession still leave a lot to be explained. This study investigates the technicality of written legal documents by studying 10 Nigerian Supreme Court rulings, specifically the outcome of cases of human rights violations by the Nigerian military regime. Nine purposively selected excerpts were analysed using generic structure potential elements. The analysis generated nine elements, five of which are obligatory and the other four optional. The obligatory elements are Review of Lower Court Proceedings, Reproduction of Issues, Reference to Authorities, Application of Authorities, and Final Verdict. The optional elements are Review of Facts, Reproduction of Pleadings, Analysis of Evidence, and Analysis of Argument. This study concludes that generic structure potential is a useful theory for demystifying complex texts.

期刊介绍： The purpose of Language Matters is to provide a journal of international standing with a unique African flavour focusing on multilingualism in Africa. Although the journal contributes to the language debate on all African languages, sub-Saharan Africa and issues related to multilingualism in the southern African context are the journal’s specific domains. The journal seeks to promote the dissemination of ideas, points of view, teaching strategies and research on different aspects of African languages, providing a forum for discussion on the whole spectrum of language usage and debate in Africa. The journal endorses a multidisciplinary approach to the study of language and welcomes contributions not only from sociolinguists, psycholinguists and the like, but also from educationalists, language practitioners, computer analysts, engineers or scholars with a genuine interest in and contribution to the study of language. All contributions are critically reviewed by at least two referees. Although the general focus remains on multilingualism and related issues, one of the three issues of Language Matters published each year is a special thematic edition on Language Politics in Africa. These special issues embrace a wide spectrum of language matters of current relevance in Southern Africa.
