Dean Christie's Letter, Innis Christie
Dean Christie's Letter, Innis Christie
Innis Christie Collection
What a year! For one thing, it was the first year in the new Sir James Dunn Law Library and the refurbished Weldon Law Building. It seemed to me that the academic year had hardly gotten under way when we were into official opening ceremonies. The opening in the atrium, following the fall convocation on Saturday, October 21, was a fine ceremony, culminating in the unveiling of a plaque by the premier of Nova Scotia, Dal law alumnus The Honourable John M. Buchannan '58, and Mr. Donald Sobey, chairman of the capital campaign which paid for the building.

Developments In Constitutional Law: The 1988-89 Term, A. Wayne Mackay, Dianne Pothier
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
This article canvasses the major developments from the 1988-89 term of the Supreme Court of Canada.
In terms of Charter jurisprudence there were major developments concerning equality rights, mobility rights, freedom of expression, and section 7.
More generally, there were also important developments in the federal trade and commerce power and broad hints as to the Supreme Court's leanings in relation to the federal spending power. There is clarification on how both federal and provincial laws affect federal undertakings, and re-affirmation of the ancillary nature of powers in relation to language. The Court reassesses the tests of when a provincial …
On The Road To Radical Reform: A Critical Review Of Unger's Politics, Richard F. Devlin Frsc
On The Road To Radical Reform: A Critical Review Of Unger's Politics, Richard F. Devlin Frsc
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
Two aims drive this essay. The first is to provide the reader with an accessible, yet relatively comprehensive, introduction to Roberto Mangabeira Unger's social and legal theory. The second aim is to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of Unger's most recent scholarship and to make some suggestions as to where he goes awry. In particular, the author draws several parallels between the Ungerian enterprise and that of some feminists. The central motivation of the essay is to keep the critical conversation between male radicals and feminists open. To this end, the author posits the possibility of mutually beneficial contributions.
Nomos And Thanatos (Part B): Feminism As Jurisgenerative Transformation, Or Resistance Through Partial Incorporation? Part Ii, Richard F. Devlin Frsc
Nomos And Thanatos (Part B): Feminism As Jurisgenerative Transformation, Or Resistance Through Partial Incorporation? Part Ii, Richard F. Devlin Frsc
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
In Part A of this essay, "The Killing Fields", I developed a critique of the disciplinary impulses that underlie modern law and legal theory. Invoking a number of perspectives and a plurality of analyses, I proposed that male-stream legal theory and contemporary law both assume as inevitable, and legitimize as appropriate, the funnelling of violence through law. The problem with a funnel, however, is that it does not curtail or reduce that which is channelled through it. On the contrary, to funnel is to condense and to intensify. Viewed from this perspective, interpreted from the bottom up, law and legal …

Municipal Issues And The Charter Of Rights: The Impact At The Grass Roots, A. Wayne Mackay, Kathryn Heckaman
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
Municipal institutions are the forgotten partners in the Canadian confederation. This is true in both political and legal terms. In political terms the agencies of local government are often under-valued. With respect to the law, the municipal level of government has too often been ignored. Both municipal councils and their related boards and tribunals have an important impact on the lives of citizens at the grass roots level. In carrying out their duties, municipal authorities exercise a wide range of discretionary powers and it is becoming increasingly important that they recognize the legal limits on their powers. The first and …
