  • L INTRODUCTION Most of the Countries of the Commonwealth and States of the United States of America Are Known As Common-Law Jurisdictions
    1977] THE RECEPTION OF ENGLISH LAW 29 THE RECEPTION OF ENGLISH LAW J.E. COTE* A new country is faced with a choice in deciding upon a system of law for itself. It can either copy someone else's codified law or it can adopt a system of law which is largely judge-made. If it opts for the latter it cannot afford to spend centuries building up a system of judge-made law. Therefore it must copy the rules of a society which has already developed a sophisticated body of such law. Most of the Commonwealth nations have chosen the latter route and as a result have received English law as their own. The rules and consequences inherent in such a reception are discussed in this article. After a short discussion of the distinction between the Imperial law in force proprio vigore and the English law received in the colony as such, the modes of reception of English law are described. In this respect the differences in reception between settled and conquered colonies are outlined. The parts of English law which have been received and the general rules of applicability as well as the applicability of particular areas of the law are also analyzed. The article concludes with a discussion of repeal, amendment and reform of imported English law by the country receiving such law. An appendix contains an account of the reception of English law in each of the Canadian provinces. The subject of this article is often considered as part of legal history. It should be stressed however that this is not the case, as all the rules described are rules of present-day law and many of them are being applied and expounded continually, particularly in Australia and Canada.

  • Culture, Heritage and the Politics of Identity in National and Tribal Spaces: the City and the Traditional Village in Botswana
    Culture, Heritage and the Politics of Identity in National and Tribal Spaces: the city and the traditional village in Botswana By Katlego Pleasure Mwale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Social Sciences School of Architecture December 2017 Abstract Studies into architecture in Botswana posit that architecture in the capital city- Gaborone is a result of the imposition of British culture received through the historical conditions of colonisation and independence. This study seeks to go beyond this generalisation by examining architecture in Botswana, grounded in the construction of national and ethnic cultural identities, a sense of history, the idea of culture and its implication on space. It explores the relationship between identity politics and architecture. It traces various postcolonial identity- making practices in the city and traditional villages, which I argue, reveal a scenario whereby identities are re-interpreted and re-inscribed as part of the process of postcolonial manifestations of identities in space. Gaborone was planned as a capital city during the transition to self-rule and was envisioned as a mirror image of a nation, this process involved a search for postcolonial national identity and nation-building imperative. By analysing the archival documents and case study material on the city's planning legacy in relation to the socio-political context, I argue that these material facts provide a lens through which the representative spaces of the nation and state can be critically examined. I suggest that the process of envisioning the city is far more complex and nuanced than it is usually portrayed in literature, and it entails the negotiation between design professionals, the extant Tswana political elite, and colonial administrative officers.

Proclamation of British Protectorate.—During the year 1885 Sir Charles Warren, who was in command of an expedition dispatched from England to pacify Southern Bechuanaland, where for some time previously hostilities had been proceeding between the Bechuana and Boers from the South African Bepublic, visited the principal Chiefs in Northern Bechuanalund (known as the Bechuanaland Protectorate), namely, Khama, Gaseitsiwe and Scheie ; and as a result a British Protectorate was proclaimed over their territories. No further steps were taken until the year 1891, when, by an Order in Council, dated the Ulh May, the iimits of the Bechuanaland Protectorate were more clearly defined, and the High Commissioner for South Africa was authorised to appoint such officers as might appear to him to be necessary to provide for the administration of justice, the raising of revenue, and generally for the peace, order, and good government of all persons within the limits of the Order.

  • Of Southern Africa
    of Southern Africa Busutoland, liechuanaland Protectorate, Swaziland. by SIR CHARLES DUNDAS AND Dr. HUGH ASHTON Price 7s. 6d. Net. THE SOUTH AFRICAN INSTITUTE OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS THE SOUTH AFRICAN INSTITUTE OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Cape Town Durban Joh.imieshurg Port Elizabeth The South African Institute of Intenintional Affairs is an unofficiiil body founded in 1934 to promote through study, discussion, lectures, and public addresses .in understanding of international questions and problems. The Institute, as such, is precluded hy the terms of its Constitution from expressing an opinion un any aspect of international uffiiirs. Any opinions expressed in this publication arc not, therefore, those of the Institute. First Published 1952 For further information consult The General Secretary P.O. Box 9J7" Johannesburg South Africa rotewotd 1 I 'HE world today is in such a disturbed state that the study of -L international affairs on a global scale is of necessity extremely complex. While in its discussions the South African Institute of International Affairs is concerned with the problems of the world at large, its policy in recent years has been to limit its research to the "local" region of Africa south of the Sahara. In dealing with the Union's relations with other African territories and particularly with its near neighbours, the Institute has found among South Africans surprising ignorance of the facts relating to these territories. It is obviously important to have factual information regarding the relations between one's country and other territories and in July, 1946, the Institute published a pamphlet on South-West Africa. At that time important discussions were taking place in UNO and the Institute received many expressions of appreciation of the value of that pamphlet in setting out the significant facts.
