Common Law, Civil Law, and Colonial Law
Common Law, Civil Law, and Colonial Law builds upon the legal historian F.W. Maitland's famous observation that history involves comparison, and that those who ignore every system but their own 'hardly came in sight of the idea of legal history'. The extensive introduction addresses the intellectual challenges posed by comparative approaches to legal history. This is followed by twelve essays derived from papers delivered at the 24th British Lega…
Alison Quentin-Baxter and Janet McLean, This Realm of New Zealand
The Commonwealth of Nations is a voluntary association of 53 sovereign independent states almost all of which were once members of an indivisible Empire under the British Crown. Most members of the Commonwealth are constituted as republics, but there remain 16 Realms with Queen Elizabeth II as the Sovereign head of state. Though having the same historical origins, these constitutional monarchies have developed a diversity of constitutional arrang…
The Crown and Constitutional Reform
At the centre of the constitutional orders of Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom stands a familiar icon and a usually unquestioned source of authority: the Crown. Yet that easy familiarity conceals a potent and paradoxical enigma. For some analysts the Crown is a shapeshifting anomaly: not simply a conceptual placeholder for the state, but also a constitutional fiction and mask for the extensive use of executive power, often us…
From Loyal Dominion to New Republic
In Canada, Australia, and New Zealand – all of which were once loyal dominions in an indivisible British Empire – what might be the chances of successful moves to ditch archaic feudal symbols and create new republican institutions and symbols as this twenty-first century unfolds? When the Crown research project began the author thought New Zealand would not be at the forefront of constitutional change towards a republican constitution. This paper…
Ko Aotearoa Tenei
In July 2011 what is commonly known as the Wai 262 Report was released. After a protracted series of hearings, dating back to 1997, the New Zealand Waitangi Tribunal has at last reported on the some of the wide range of issues canvassed in those hearings. Three beautifully illustrated volumes contain a large number of recommendations in what is described as a whole-of-government report. This article notes earlier comments on Wai 262 in this journ…
Inappropriate/d Others
The most successfully integrated of humanity's animal “others,” the dog surpasses all other animals in the length and complexity of its relationship to human beings. To initiate a “cartography of the canine” is both to remember a rich history and to envisage, along with many artists, new possibilities for this enduring companionship
Maori Social Identification and Colonial Extinguishments of Customary Rights in New Zealand
Maori social identity as the indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand is inextricably interwoven with land and Maori customary relationships to land. The efforts of colonial governments to individualise Maori land tenure often led to litigation in which Maori plaintiffs asserted, contrary to the claims of the Crown, that their customary rights remained unextinguished. New Zealand colonial governments, however, expressed a strong preference to de…

The Terrible but Unfinished Story of Norodom Sihanouk, King of Cambodia
No contemporary French feminist has made a bigger impact in America than Helene Cixous. Brilliant, bold, and combative, author of numerous novels and a gargantuan study of James Joyce, and sponsor of a series of notorious seminars at the University of Paris about women's writing, she has exploited the roles of femme fatale and maitresse d'education in a career that has been spectacularly defiant and productive. Sihanouk is one of Cixous's most am…
Peter Brook and the Mahabharata
Peter Brook's The Mahabharata attracted massive public interest during its short touring life, and a subsequent six hour film version was televised worldwide. A number of critics hailed it as theatrical event of the decade. Yet most of the critical material has failed to address a number of central issues: the production's relationship with Brook's other work and the politics of theatre interculturalism, for example. This book seeks not only to e…
