Human dignity and the human personality
This article examines the multi-faceted nature of human dignity as a constitutional value, together with its interplay with other constitutional values, to provide an ideological basis for the constitutional development of the common law of personality with reference to Kantian moral philosophy (and other intellectual traditions). This article argues that the interplay between the multi-faceted nature of human dignity and other constitutional val…

In this regard, I crit…

South African law, as informed by the Constitution, has comparatively developed extensively regarding the accommodation of the…
