Book Synopsis Background Paper on the Approach of Australian Courts to Aboriginal Customary Law in the Areas of Criminal, Civil and Family Law by : Victoria Williams
Download or read book Background Paper on the Approach of Australian Courts to Aboriginal Customary Law in the Areas of Criminal, Civil and Family Law written by Victoria Williams and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is intended to provide a broad summary of the approach of Australian courts to Aboriginal customary law in the areas of criminal law, civil law and family law. Because this paper was produced to inform the Law Reform Commission of Western Australia's Aboriginal customary law reference, the primary focus of the paper is the development of the common law position on customary law in Western Australia. However, there are instances where there is no Western Australian precedent or where the law has been shaped by decisions of courts in other states or territories or by the High Court. This paper therefore refers extensively to relevant cases in all Australian jurisdictions.

Book Synopsis Access to Justice and Legal Aid by : Asher Flynn
Download or read book Access to Justice and Legal Aid written by Asher Flynn and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers how access to justice is affected by restrictions to legal aid budgets and increasingly prescriptive service guidelines. As common law jurisdictions, England and Wales and Australia, share similar ideals, policies and practices, but they differ in aspects of their legal and political culture, in the nature of the communities they serve and in their approaches to providing access to justice. These jurisdictions thus provide us with different perspectives on what constitutes justice and how we might seek to overcome the burgeoning crisis in unmet legal need. The book fills an important gap in existing scholarship as the first to bring together new empirical and theoretical knowledge examining different responses to legal aid crises both in the domestic and comparative contexts, across criminal, civil and family law. It achieves this by examining the broader social, political, legal, health and welfare impacts of legal aid cuts and prescriptive service guidelines. Across both jurisdictions, this work suggests that it is the most vulnerable groups who lose out in the way the law now operates in the twenty-first century. This book is essential reading for academics, students, practitioners and policymakers interested in criminal and civil justice, access to justice, the provision of legal assistance and legal aid.
Book Synopsis Access to Justice in Rural Communities by : Daniel Newman
Download or read book Access to Justice in Rural Communities written by Daniel Newman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-04 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers insight on access to justice from rural areas in internationally comparable contexts to highlight the diversity of experiences within, and across rural areas globally. It looks at the fundamental questions for people's lives raised by the issue of access to justice as well as the rule of law. It highlights a range of social, geographic and cultural issues which impact the way rural communities experience the justice system throughout the world with chapters on Australia, Canada, England, Ireland, Kenya, Northern Ireland, South Africa, Syria, Turkey, the USA and Wales. Each chapter explores three questions: 1. How do people experience the institutions of justice in rural areas and how does this rural experience differ to an urban experience? 2. What impact have changes in policy had on the justice system in rural areas, and have rural and urban areas been affected in different ways? 3. What impact does the law have on people's lives in rural areas and what would rural communities like to be better understood about their experience of the justice system? By bringing in the voices and experiences of those who are often ignored or side-lined by justice systems, this book will set out an agenda for ensuring social justice in legal systems with a focus on protecting marginalised groups.

Book Synopsis Background Paper on the Value of a Benchmarking Framework to the Reduction of Indigenous Disadvantage in the Law and Justice Area by : Greg Marks
Download or read book Background Paper on the Value of a Benchmarking Framework to the Reduction of Indigenous Disadvantage in the Law and Justice Area written by Greg Marks and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australian legal and political system increasingly operates in an international context. Consequently, policy development and program implementation at the national level must take account of international standards and practices. This is especially the case in the area of human rights, and for settler societies such as Australia the human rights of Indigenous people are a particular focus. The recognition that Indigenous peoples often suffer significant disadvantage, poverty and distress has been significant in focusing attention on the human rights situation of such peoples. This situation is characteristically evident in the area of law and justice. However, international human rights standards provide guidance in respect of the rights of Indigenous peoples with reference to law and justice matters. This guidance addresses the disadvantage experienced in the interaction of Indigenous peoples with the law and justice systems of nation states, including the obstacles they face in maintaining and applying their own laws and customs, at least in relation to their own internal affairs.
