Abstract
This paper examines the concept of judicial independence in Kenya with a view to providing a deeper understanding of the challenges that work against its practical aspects. It uses a generalizable analytical framework to illuminate the relationship between judicial independence and specified essential factors normally considered as critical to strengthening the judicial independence in a democratic society. Descriptive method has been used to relate data to theory and to provide a coherent explanation on impediments to judicial independence in Kenya. The empirical analysis that draw on two datasets-the Afrobarometer and The CIRI Human Rights, is provided to augment theoretical explanations. These datasets directly relate to Kenya, hence their usefulness. This paper provides a detailed description of perceived challenges to judicial independence in Kenya and makes summaries on reasons why such challenges subsist.
