Phil in Political Theory Department of Politics and International Relations, St Antony’s College, University of Oxford 2007 – 2013 Full fees and maintenance grant from the Commonwealth Association Doctoral Thesis Title: The Normative Ethics of Immigration Detention in Liberal States Supervisors: Bridget Anderson and Matthew J. Gibney Examiners: Joseph H. Carens and Cathryn Costello Abstract: This thesis critiques the ethical and political propriety of practicing detention in the United Kingdom. Using a combination of normative theory, migration studies, and public policy studies, the thesis argues that a potential solution for combating the practical problems associated with growing, worsening detention systems as well as the moral dilemma of incarcerating non-citizens based on fear of absconding would be to open borders and eliminate immigration control. Given the reality of the sovereign right to control immigration, however, the thesis concedes that the more feasible normative answer is liberal states’ adoption of a new framework of minimum standards of treatment while simultaneously pressing for open borders as the long-term ethical goal.

    Ian Bushnell*

    JUstice ivan rand and the roLe of a JUdge in the nation’s highest coUrt Ian Bushnell* INTRODUCTION What is the proper role for the judiciary in the governance of a country? This must be the most fundamental question when the work of judges is examined. It is a constitutional question. Naturally, the judicial role or, more specifically, the method of judicial decision-making, critically affects how lawyers function before the courts, i.e., what should be the content of the legal argument? What facts are needed? At an even more basic level, it affects the education that lawyers should experience. The present focus of attention is Ivan Cleveland Rand, a justice of the Supreme Court of Canada from 1943 until 1959 and widely reputed to be one of the greatest judges on that Court. His reputation is generally based on his method of decision-making, a method said to have been missing in the work of other judges of his time. The Rand legal method, based on his view of the judicial function, placed him in illustrious company. His work exemplified the traditional common law approach as seen in the works of classic writers and judges such as Sir Edward Coke, Sir Matthew Hale, Sir William Blackstone, and Lord Mansfield. And he was in company with modern jurists whose names command respect, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., and Benjamin Cardozo, as well as a law professor of Rand at Harvard, Roscoe Pound. In his judicial decisions, addresses and other writings, he kept no secrets about his approach and his view of the judicial role.

The analysis is based on the period since 1948. The first hypothesis is that the judges of the Supreme Court of Canada belong to the dominant class in Canadian society. The second hypothesis is that they contribute to the dominance of their class primarily on the ideological plane. Keywords Canada.
