Constitutional politics in Canada after the Charter<br />
Liberalism, Communitarianism, and Systemism<br />
Patrick James<br />
Since the Charter of Rights and Freedoms was<br />
introduced, Canada has experienced more than<br />
twenty-five years of constitutional politics and<br />
countless debates about the future of Canada.<br />
There has, however, been no systematic attempt<br />
to identify general theories about Canada’s<br />
constitutional evolution. Patrick James corrects<br />
this oversight. By adding clarity to familiar<br />
debates, this succinct assessment of major<br />
writings on constitutional politics sharpens<br />
our vision of the past – and the future – of the<br />
Canadian federation.<br />

The british Columbia Court of Appeal<br />
the First Hundred Years<br />
Christopher Moore<br />
Courts of law at once reflect and shape the<br />
society in which they reside and dispense justice.<br />
To mark the 2010 centenary of the British<br />
Columbia Court of Appeal, this book presents an<br />
institutional, jurisprudential, and biographical<br />
account of the court and its evolving role in the<br />
province. Richly illustrated and replete with<br />
group portraits of judges and accounts of key<br />
cases, this authoritative history explores how<br />
the court came into being, how it has operated,<br />
and who its judges have been. In the process,<br />
it tells the story of how the court has shaped<br />
– and been shaped by – the social, political,<br />
and legal development of British Columbia.<br />
