A Defense Of Structural Injunctive Remedies In South African Law, Danielle E. Hirsch
A Defense Of Structural Injunctive Remedies In South African Law, Danielle E. Hirsch
ExpressO
This Article argues that the use of structural injunction remedies by South African courts is appropriate, and, in light of demonstrated government inaction, often necessary in order to give meaning to the protection of socio-economic rights, which is mandated by their Constitution.

This article explains the history of the procedure and analyzes why it encourages settlements, simplifies jury instructions, and produces better outcomes for the parties.

Specifically, the paper argues that Delaware's statutory exculpation regime and good faith case …
