Download or read book A History of Law in Canada Volume One written by Philip Girard and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Law in Canada is an important three-volume project. Volume One begins at a time just prior to European contact and continues to the 1860s, Volume Two covers the half century after Confederation, and Volume Three covers the period from the beginning of the First World War to 1982, with a postscript taking the account to approximately 2000. The history of law includes substantive law, legal institutions, legal actors, and legal culture. The authors assume that since 1500 there have been three legal systems in Canada – the Indigenous, the French, and the English. At all times, these systems have co-existed and interacted, with the relative power and influence of each being more or less dominant in different periods. The history of law cannot be treated in isolation, and this book examines law as a dynamic process, shaped by and affecting other histories over the long term. The law guided and was guided by economic developments, was influenced and moulded by the nature and trajectory of political ideas and institutions, and variously exacerbated or mediated intercultural exchange and conflict. These themes are apparent in this examination, and through most areas of law including land settlement and tenure, and family, commercial, constitutional, and criminal law.
Download or read book The Common Law of Obligations written by Andrew Robertson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of the law of obligations across the common law world has been, and continues to be, a story of unity and divergence. Its common origins continue to exert a powerful stabilising influence, carried forward by a methodology that places heavy weight on the historical foundations of legal principles. Divergence is, however, produced by numerous factors, including national and international human rights instruments, local statutory regimes, civil law influences, regional harmonisation, local circumstances and values and different political and legal cultures. The essays in this collection explore the forces that produce divergence, the countervailing forces that generate cohesion and consistency in the common law of obligations, and the influence that the major common law jurisdictions continue to exert over one another in this area of law. The chapters in this book were originally presented at the Seventh Biennial Conference on the Law of Obligations held in Hong Kong in July 2014. A second collection, entitled Divergences in Private Law (ISBN: 9781782256601), will focus on particular departures from the common law mainstream and the causes and effects of those deviations.

Download or read book The Canadian Law of Unjust Enrichment and Restitution written by Mitchell McInnes and published by . This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 1785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although it is often referred to as "the third branch of private law", alongside contract and tort, the law of unjust enrichment and restitution is not well understood. That is true for a variety of reasons. The subject is seldom taught in law school. Many of the traditional cases speak in a language that is incomprehensible to modern ears. Most significantly, until now, there has not been a text that is structured in accordance with the modern Canadian principle of unjust enrichment.

Download or read book Strictly Legal II written by Michael Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With new and updated information and an additional chapter Canadians live by the rule of law. In theory, we are all equally governed by the law and we all have equal access to our justice system, but in practice, says Toronto lawyer Michael Cochrane, we don't know enough about our legal rights and obligations. We fear the court system because of its slowness and its cost. And we put off or muddle through important things like Wills and contracts because we don't want to pay for a lawyer to help us. We don't really know what the law is until we are in danger of breaking it. There are situations when we need legal information, however, and Michael Cochrane's book will help you to know what questions to ask and what steps you should take to safeguard your legal rights and carry out your legal obligations. The second edition of the popular Strictly Legal, the book is divided into eleven chapters, each explaining ten things you absolutely need to know about an area of Canadian law, including hiring a lawyer, contracts, real estate transactions, criminal law, wills and estates, employment law, and intellectual property protection. As the host of the BNN TV show Strictly Legal, Michael Cochrane answered thousands of questions from average Canadians about our laws, and he brings that same talent for making complex issues understandable to this book. With new and updated material, this book brings current Canadian law into focus for every reader. New information includes: a list of helpful websites and other resources; the latest information on fast-changing areas of law such as Family Law and Privacy Law; an overview of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, with an emphasis on the ways it affects our everyday lives.

Download or read book Contract Law and Contract Practice written by Catherine E Mitchell and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An oft-repeated assertion within contract law scholarship and cases is that a good contract law (or a good commercial contract law) will meet the needs and expectations of commercial contractors. Despite the prevalence of this statement, relatively little attention has been paid to why this should be the aim of contract law, how these 'commercial expectations' are identified and given substance, and what precise legal techniques might be adopted by courts to support the practices and expectations of business people. This book explores these neglected issues within contract law. It examines the idea of commercial expectation, identifying what expectations commercial contractors may have about the law and their business relationships (using empirical studies of contracting behaviour), and assesses the extent to which current contract law reflects these expectations. It considers whether supporting commercial expectations is a justifiable aim of the law according to three well-established theoretical approaches to contractual obligations: rights-based explanations, efficiency-based (or economic) explanations and the relational contract critique of the classical law. It explores the specific challenges presented to contract law by modern commercial relationships and the ways in which the general rules of contract law could be designed and applied in order to meet these challenges. Ultimately the book seeks to move contract law beyond a simple dichotomy between contextualist and formalist legal reasoning, to a more nuanced and responsive legal approach to the regulation of commercial agreements.
