INTRODUCTION This year, as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the adoption of the Charter, journals and newspapers are replete with evaluations. Some are positive, some less so. Some are downright critical. Today, I would like to offer my reflections on the good news and the bad news about the Charter,a quarter-century on. I will begin with a declaration of interest. Over the years I have said and written a lot about Canada's constitutional bill of rights. My first foray, written when I was still a callow law student, was an article arguing that Canada should not constitutionalize rights, based on a comparison of rights protection in the United States under an entrenched bill of rights and rights protection in Canada without one.

  • The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing
    Conference Draft – June 29, 2004 CONFERENCE DRAFT “The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing” Margaret Beare Sociology and Law, Osgoode Hall Law School Abstract: This paper examines the operational realities of the police executive linkages—beyond the official dictates of the law and the desired position expressed in ideological discourses on police independence. Paper draws primarily on historical and criminological literature and research, and public inquiries. The central argument of this paper is that, while there may be a somewhat clear-cut division between the policy versus the operational control of the police by the State in law and in rhetoric, the reality is quite different. The relationship between the State and the police is a dynamic relationship that changes to reflect the nature of the policing that is being carried-out, the political interests of the party in power, and to some extent the personalities of the key players within both the police services and in politics at a specific period in time. This research indicates that looking for the ‘smoking gun’—i.e. the memo or document that in writing acknowledges a directive from the executive to the police sidesteps the reality of the on-going partnerships between politics and policing. Introduction: Much current controversy surrounding policing centres around two issues: the relationship between the police and politics and the question of accountability. Dianne Martins paper has addressed the issue of accountability and while the two issues overlap, I shall be looking specifically at the political question. An understanding of the organizational workings of the police is essential to any attempt to reconcile the tensions between the dictates of police autonomy and the restraints imposed on the police.

Ein Gespräch mit Thorsten Quaeschning von Tangerine Dream. Für das Genre der elektronischen Musik gilt die 1967 gegründete Gruppe Tangerine Dream als stilprägend. Ebenso wie Kraftwerk genießen die Berliner heute noch international Anerkennung. 2015 starb Gründer Edgar Froese, der als einziger Musiker die ganze Zeit dabei war und mit vielen verschiedenen Besetzungen arbeitete. Die drei verbliebenen Musiker machen weiter und treten am Samstag, 3. September, beim Elektronik-Festival „Schwingungen am Wasserfall“ bei Kabelmetal in Windeck auf. Einer von ihnen ist Thorsten Quaeschning. Mit ihm sprach Dominik Pieper Weitere Links • Viele Besucher kommen aus dem Ausland Haben Sie sich den Entschluss leicht gemacht, ohne Edgar Froese mit Tangerine Dream weiterzumachen? Thorsten Quaeschning: Das habe ich gar nicht entschieden. Edgar hat noch zu Lebzeiten sehr genau bestimmt, wie und mit wem Tangerine Dream weitergehen soll. Er hatte einen lange vorbereiteten Plan mit dem Ziel, dass seine Vision fortgesetzt wird. Seine Frau Bianca hat nun die administrative und visuell-kreative Rolle, und musikalisch sind wir jetzt ein Trio.
