Law For Everyone For The Librarian, Hugh M. Kindred
Law For Everyone For The Librarian, Hugh M. Kindred
Dalhousie Law Journal
The problem raised by this subject is one of access to the law.' Encapsulated in my title, Law for Everyone For the Librarian, are three components: the law; the reader with a problem; and you, the librarian. The issue is essentially how to bring the three together, and in my judgment the librarian is the critical link. The equipment you need I have divided into four elements, which I will pose to you as questions: What are the resources? Where are they? How do you get at them? and How can you use them to the reader's benefit?
Law Schools And Other Reformatories, Norval Morris
Law Schools And Other Reformatories, Norval Morris
Dalhousie Law Journal
It is, of course, a great and undeserved honor for me to be offering this year's Horace E. Read Memorial Lecture. The slightest acquaintance with Dean Read's career reveals the range and quality of his contributions to the law, to the institutions of society and to legal education. It is a great pleasure to be playing a role in these annual memorial celebrations. His life is a model of service and scholarship to all who wish to live the life of the law at its higher levels and refutes those who see our profession as narrow or intellectually confined. Nevertheless, …
An American Enforcement Model Of Civil Process In A Canadian Landscape, Bruce H. Wildsmith
An American Enforcement Model Of Civil Process In A Canadian Landscape, Bruce H. Wildsmith
Dalhousie Law Journal
One general perspective from which to view the Anglo-American legal system shared by Canada is that proposed by Charles Darwin to explain the origin and diversity of biologically distinct species. Darwin's theory of evolution places emphasis upon the adjustment or adaptation over time of biological characteristics to environmental factors by the selection of genetically determined features enabling the most suited to their surroundings to better thrive - the so-called "survival of the fittest".' Law might usefully be thought of as bearing an analogous relationship to the social environment in which it exists and must operate. As this milieu for various …
Psychiatry, The Inmate And The Law, A. W. Cragg
Psychiatry, The Inmate And The Law, A. W. Cragg
Dalhousie Law Journal
In August of 1971, the Solicitor General of Canada appointed a committee of psychiatrists to advise him on the treatment of mentally ill inmates. The committee completed its work and reported in May 1972. The report, entitled The General Program for the Development of Psychiatric Services in Federal Correctional Services in Canada1 developed in the space of sixty pages, including appendices, a general program for expanding psychiatric services and facilities in the field of corrections in Canada. In his forward to the Report, the Solicitor General, Warren Allmand, announces that he is "profoundly impressed by the recommendations made by this …
Justice: An Un-Original Position, Neil Maccormick
Justice: An Un-Original Position, Neil Maccormick
Dalhousie Law Journal
Human societies are not voluntary associations. At least so far as concerns national societies and states, most human beings do not have a choice to which one they will belong, nor what shall be the law and the constitition of that to which they do belong; especially, their belonging to a given state is not conditional upon their assenting to the basic structure of its organization. Someone who is born into a given state has obviously no choice, no opportunity to stipulate conditions upon which he will accept citizenship. Choice can perhaps be exercised later, when one is an adult, …

The Legal Point Of View, L. C. Green
The Legal Point Of View, L. C. Green
Dalhousie Law Journal
What is Law? By what criteria do we recognize valid law? These questions have exercised the minds of distinguished jurisprudential thinkers of the past. Every solution that has been propounded, whether in terms of natural law theory, command models, norm or rule models, seems to have been defective in one way or another. The main thesis of this book is that every attempt to find some "essence of law" - whether in terms of commands, rules or whatever - is bound to fail. The reason given is that there is not one and only one "true" conception of law. There …
