  • Professor Emeritus Enid Mona Campbell OBE
    Professor Emeritus Enid Mona Campbell OBE The degree of Doctor of Laws (honoris causa) was conferred upon Professor Emeritus Enid Mona Campbell OBE in 2002. Citation Chancellor, I have the honour to present Professor Emeritus Enid Mona Campbell OBE, one of Australia's foremost legal scholars, for the conferring of the degree of Doctor of Laws (honoris causa). Emeritus Professor Enid Campbell graduated from the University of Tasmania with a Bachelor of Laws with Honours and Bachelor of Economics in 1955, sharing the University prize for the top student. On graduation she was selected to be among the first group of students from the Commonwealth to study at Duke University in North Carolina. At Duke, her doctoral studies examined the contribution to 19th Century jurisprudence of John Austin, philosopher of legal positivism. This work enabled her to view the law from perspectives of political philosophy, international law and comparative politics. Professor Campbell took up a lectureship in Law at the University of Sydney in 1960. She rose rapidly through the ranks being promoted Associate Professor in 1965. Among her students were current Justices of the High Court of Australia, Mary Gaudron and William Gummow. It was during her time at the University of Sydney that Professor Campbell laid the foundations of her prodigious scholarship, publishing three seminal books and 17 articles. The three books were her monograph, Parliamentary Privilege in Australia (1966), considered to be the classic text in this field; her study of civil liberties Freedom in Australia (1966), co-authored with the late Harry Whitmore and which had a second edition in 1973; and finally, the text which she wrote with Donald MacDougall, Legal Research: Materials and Methods (1967), which is now in its fourth edition with other coauthors, and is regarded as the student bible on Australian legal research.

    xiii Enid Campbell The refusal of Enid Campbell's parents to allow her to learn to tap dance 'like Shirley Temple' and the pressure of University study which led her to abandon the development of her skills in drawing and graphics may have deprived the performing and visual arts of a great talent, but the world of law has been the better for it. Enid was born in Launceston, Tasmania, in 1932. She was the first-born in a family which, on her father's side, could trace its origins to a James Brumby, of the New South Wales Corps in the early days of settlement of New South Wales. When he moved from the colony of New South Wales to that of Tasmania to become a constable in the Northern Plains District there, he released his horses to run wild - explaining, according to Campbell family lore, why in Australia wild horses are called 'brumbies'.' Though Enid's predecessors were generally associated with the land, her solicitor father provided an alternative career model for his talented daughter. He was the first professional person on either side of the family, but held no law degree, having been admitted to practice after serving his apprenticeship as an articled clerk. He was hard working, widely read, up to date with the law and took great pride in the quality of his work - standards which, through genes and by example, he obviously transmitted to his daughter. Enid completed her secondary education as dux of the Launceston Methodist Ladies' College, but not without incident. Throughout her aca- demic life, Enid's keen sense of humour has been flavoured by a certain mischievous quality which, when it emerges, catches some of her colleagues by surprise.

  • Women Research Leaders in the Australian Learned Academies, 1954–1976
    Women Research Leaders in the Australian Learned Academies, 1954–1976 Patricia Grimshaw1 and Rosemary Francis2 School of Historical and Philosophical Studies University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC 3010 [email protected] [email protected] Abstract: While the presence of women in the academic profession at levels above tutor, demonstrator, research assistant or the first rungs of lectureships was uncommon before the 1980s, individual women of talent nevertheless forged research careers of outstanding excellence. Among these scholars were the women who became the first female fellows elected to one of the four Australian learned academies founded between 1954 and 1976. The period witnessed the election of fourteen women to these academies, the first being Dorothy Hill, elected in 1956 to the Australian Academy of Science that was established two years previously. After Hill two further women were elected to that academy over the next twenty years, five women to the Australian Academy of the Humanities and four to the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia, founded in 1969 and 1971 respectively. Two women were among the sixty-four foundation fellows of the Australian Academy of Technical Sciences in 1976. Diverse in the paths that led to their recognition by their male peers as leaders in their research fields, the women were alike in their determination and persistence in pushing the boundaries of knowledge in their chosen disciplines, and the generosity with which they engaged with postgraduate students, fellow academics and the wider public. As the women’s movement inspired more women to pursue advanced research, and the academies to develop a more nuanced evaluation of women’s contributions, many of these first academicians lived to observe the increased rate of entry of women researchers to the academies though gender proportions remained unbalanced.

  • 'Australian Exceptionalism' in Judicial Review Michael Taggart It Is A
    ‘Australian exceptionalism’ in judicial review Michael Taggart∗ It is a privilege to give this lecture in honour of a great Australian public lawyer. My topic is ‘Australian exceptionalism’ in judicial review. The phrase ‘Australian exceptionalism’ is most often used these days in relation to Australia’s stand with the United States in the war against terror and the Australian government’s attitude to international human rights law.1 Australia is exceptional also in being now the only English-speaking democracy without a judicially enforceable bill of rights at the federal level.2 Although not unrelated, here I want to explore whether the part of Australian public law that deals with judicial review of administrative action is also “exceptional”.3 I will identify the features that are commonly said to set Australia apart from other common law jurisdictions and justify Australia taking a different path in the elaboration of the principles of judicial review of administrative action. This is a very large and complex topic and in the compass of a public lecture I will have to skip quickly and selectively over the terrain; no doubt, this will entail a degree of superficiality and caricature. Of necessity I will have to assume you have some familiarity with Australian administrative law. I approach this task as a common law comparativist from a small place with an interest in the intellectual history and development of Anglo-Commonwealth administrative law. I acknowledge at the outset that the idea of a nation’s jurisprudence in any area of law being exceptional is problematic because it ∗ Alexander Turner Professor of Law, Faculty of Law, University of Auckland, New Zealand.

    AIAL FORUM No. 63 OBITUARY ENID MONA CAMPBELL, AC, OBE 1932 - 2010 Matthew Groves* Emeritus Professor Enid Campbell passed away on the 20th of January 2010 after a brief illness. A proper tribute to Enid would be a long one but this recollection of Enid will attempt to remind readers of the Forum of her particular contribution to the development of Australian administrative law. Enid Campbell graduated from the University of Tasmania with first class honours and also the university medal in law. Much of Enid’s early writing was about aspects of legal history, particularly land tenure, but she moved toward public law when she began her doctoral studies in political science at Duke University. Political science would certainly have seemed an odd choice for an Australian legal scholar at that time, particularly when taken at an American law school, but it proved a useful background for public law whose work focused on the structure and operation of government. When Enid returned to Australia, she joined the Law Faculty of the University of Tasmania and did so in a day when there were almost no female academics in law. Enid then moved to the University of Sydney to become Australia’s first female Associate Professor of Law. In 1967 she became Australia’s first female Professor of Law at Monash University. Enid made a singular contribution to the scholarship of Australian public law and was a strong exponent of an indigenous Australian public law. Most scholars struggle to make an impression on either constitutional or administrative law, Enid was one of the few, and perhaps the only person in modern times, to master both aspects of public law.

  • OPENING of the MONASH HALLS of RESIDENCE Thursday 3 December 2015
    OPENING OF THE MONASH HALLS OF RESIDENCE Thursday 3 December 2015 Dr Alan Finkel AO Chancellor Professor Margaret Gardner AO President and Vice-Chancellor The distinguished guests acknowledged by the MC Ladies and gentlemen I also acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we are gathering and pay my respects to their Elders past and present and to any Elders who may be with us this morning. It is a pleasure for me to be here. Of course, I didn’t study at this university, but I did “marry in” as it were, my husband being a Monash graduate, and I certainly went “the extra mile” by producing two sons who are now alumni of this University. In any event, it is not difficult to know what an illustrious place of learning, research and innovation it is. One of the jewels in the Crown of Victoria’s renowned tertiary education offering. It is a particular pleasure to be here to officially open these four new halls of residence that will house another 1000 students in Monash University’s Clayton Campus Urban Community. The Halls are of course to be named in honour of four members of the academic staff of the University, each selected for their outstanding leadership and service. Let me talk briefly of their contributions. I can't resist starting with the women who came before my generation, and paved the way for our achievements. And forgive me too for playing to my own professional background by starting with a lawyer! For Official Use Only 1 The late Emeritus Professor Enid Campbell achieved countless firsts, leading the way for female law students for generations.

  • Upholding the Australian Constitution Volume Seventeen
    Chapter Five The Governor-General is our Head of State Sir David Smith, KCVO, AO “Constitutional reform is a serious matter. Unlike ordinary law reform whose effects are confined to specific areas and which may be modified or repealed if it turns out to have been ill-advised, constitutional reform impacts upon the entire system of law and government and is virtually irreversible. It follows that we have an obligation not only to ourselves but to our descendants to consider any proposals to change the Constitution of the Commonwealth or a State rationally, deliberately and with a complete understanding of the nature of that which is being changed and of what the consequences of the change will be”.1 The republicans are at it again, despite the hiding that they received in 1999, and despite the fact that the latest polling shows support for the republic has declined since 2001. A cross-party republican forum has been established in the Commonwealth Parliament, and The Australian newspaper has taken up the cause again, so the task is before us once more. And what is it that these politicians and The Australian want to foist on us? They want us to become a republic, but they don’t yet know what sort of republic. In fact there is no such thing as “a republic”. The United Nations recognises 191 independent countries in the world, and more than half of them – 104 by my count – are republics. Most of these republics are different from each other, and none of them offers a better system of government than the one we have enjoyed on this continent for more than 150 years, and as a nation for more than a century.

Technically the Centenary of the Faculty of Law occurred in 1957, 100 years after the Faculty was formally established by the new University. In that sense, Sydney joins Melbourne as the two oldest law faculties in Australia. But, even less than the law itself, a law school is not just words on paper; it is people relating to each other, students and their teachers. Effectively the Faculty began its teaching existence in 1890. In that year the first full time Professor, Pitt Cobbett was appointed. Thus, and appropriately, the Law School celebrated its centenary in 1990, 33 years after the Faculty might have done. In addition to a formal structure, a law school needs a substantial one, stone, bricks and mortar in better architectural days, but if pressed to it, pre-stressed concrete. In its first century, as these chapters recount, the School was rather peripatetic — as if on circuit around Phillip Street.

  • Removal of Judges from Office
    Advance Copy REMOVAL OF JUDGES FROM OFFICE THE H ON GEOFFREY NETTLE AC QC* e power under s 72(ii) of the Constitution to remove federal judges for proved misbe- haviour or incapacity has never been exercised, nor has the High Court of Australia been called upon to construe the meaning of those terms. With a particular emphasis upon ‘proved misbehaviour’, this paper attempts to identify some ways in which the interpreta- tion of s 72(ii) may develop. e power to remove judges is informed by the centuries of legal history over which the concept of judicial tenure has developed in Anglo-Australian law, the Convention Debates, accepted modes of constitutional interpretation and interna- tional experience. While uncertainty remains at the margins, the nature and degree of proved misbehaviour sufficient to invoke s 72(ii) must be proportionate to the constitu- tional significance of effectuating an exception to judicial tenure.

    ANDREW INGLIS CLARK’S DRAFT CONSTITUTION, CHAPTER III OF THE AUSTRALIAN CONSTITUTION, AND THE ASSIST FROM ARTICLE III OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES WILLIAM G BUSS* [Andrew Inglis Clark came to the Australasian Constitutional Convention in Sydney in 1891 with a complete Constitution acknowledged by him to be largely based on the United States Constitution. Particularly in respect of Chapter III, the Australian Constitution was significantly influenced by Clark’s American-based Constitution. This article analyses the way American constitutional law concerning the judiciary was inextricably woven into the Convention Debates about federal courts, federal judicial power and federal jurisdiction by the Australian framers, in 1897 and 1898 as well as 1891. Starting with a focus on the American art III incorporated in Clark’s Constitution, the article considers the framers’ arguments in the Convention Debates that produced the similarities and differences in the provisions adopted in the Australian Chapter III. The article, then, selectively discusses some instances in which the Clark–American background continues to be relevant to Australian constitutional law.] CONTENTS I Introduction ............................................................................................................ 719 II Overview: The Australasian Constitutional Conventions and the Evolution of Clark’s Constitution — A Concise Summary......................................................... 724 A The Australasian Constitutional Conventions...........................................
