Product description
This book marks the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the New Zealand Supreme Court. The first part of the book examines the Court as an institution, and the second part assesses its decisions in the most important areas of New Zealand law: Māori legal issues, criminal law, public law, contract, torts and so on. The authors consider how the Court is meeting its statutory objectives, whether it is hearing the right cases, how it relates to other courts in Aotearoa New Zealand, how it negotiates the law/politics distinction, when it is “minimalist” and when it is “maximalist”, how it undertakes its conserving incrementalist common law role, and the symbols by which it projects itself to the community.
Features
It is an anniversary second edition, (the last one almost ten years ago) with a conference marking the celebration. It takes its contents from 27 contributors and covers a variety of legal topics.
