Viscount Haldane

'The Wicked Step-Father of the Canadian Constitution'

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Vaughan's analysis of Haldane's legal philosophy and its impact on the Canadian constitution concludes that his Hegelian legacy is very much alive in today's Supreme Court of Canada and that it continues to shape the constitution and the lives of Canadians since the adoption of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
