This handbook aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the multi-faceted art law within the legal framework applicable to South Africa.

In four 'phases', it provides answers to legal questions that arise from the initiation of an art project up to its exploitation. It is aimed at both law students who have an academic interest in an in-depth introduction to art law and practitioners from the art world, and is therefore equipped with numerous explanatory examples.

The contents were prepared by students of the Art Law Clinic Stellenbosch and revised by the editors.

The Dispute resolution digest 2012 is the product of 7 years of continuous research by Tokiso into the labour dispute settlement system of South Africa. The intention of the Digest is to give a dispassionate account, based on statistical examination, of whether the dispute mechanisms of the Labour Relations Act are functioning effectively. The Digest considers types of labour disputes, settlements, trends in remedies and awards, and compliance with these awards. The disputes and awards are separated into their sub-categories of type, sector and forum with some interesting findings. Strikes, the most extreme form of labour action by employees, are analysed by the number of strikes, effects of strikes and the factors that trigger strikes.

This bilingual casebook is intended as a study aid for students of the general principles of the law of contract. Extracts from leading cases, supplemented by explanatory notes, are set out in traditional textbook style, which should provide students with easy access to cases.

Hydraulic Fracturing in the Karoo: Critical Legal and Environmental Perspectives explores a broad-ranging set of questions related to proposed hydraulic fracturing or `fracking' in the Karoo. The book is multidisciplinary, with contributors including natural scientists, social scientists, and academics from the humanities, all concerned with the ways in which scientific facts and debates about fracking have been framed and given meaning. The work comprises four parts: Part 1 provides an international, legal, energy, economic, and revenue overview of the topic. Part 2 has a physio-geographic theme, with chapters on the inter-related aspects of water, geology, geo-hydrology, seismicity and biodiversity, as well as archaeological and palaeontological considerations. Part 3 focuses on public health, and sociological and humanities-related aspects, and Part 4 addresses the relevant laws, emphasising their implementation and the role of governance. The underlying theme of Hydraulic Fracturing in the Karoo: Critical Legal and Environmental Perspectives is one of caution. The book emphasises the need for collaboration between the natural and social sciences and the responsibilities of those charged with the implementation and governance of the fracking enterprise if South Africa hopes to effectively manage fracking at all.

The exploitation of natural resources in Africa represents a major challenge. The African continent, which remains largely unexplored, contains a large part of the world's natural resources. The current context, characterised by a fluctuation of commodity prices, does not reduce the growing interest in Africa and its extractive sector. Oil, Gas and Mining Law in Africa analyses the mining and petroleum laws in African countries and includes an assessment of contractual aspects applicable to oil, gas and mining operations. The innovative interest of this book is to provide a detailed and up-to-date analysis of mining and petroleum laws applicable to the upstream sector in Africa. It focuses on all the mining and petroleum laws and especially those recently enacted in a constantly changing environment.

Chapter 8 of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act 75 of 1997, allows the Minister of Labour to promulgate minimum conditions of employment for employees in specific sectors or areas, in the form of Sectoral Determinations. Sectoral Determination 6 sets out minimum conditions of employment in the South African Private Security Sector, a sector employing over 500 000 active security officers, with 1 500 000 registered security officers, and over 9 000 active employer security companies. This book presents a non-legalistic commentary on the specific minimum conditions of employment applicable to persons employed in South Africa as security officers. The key provisions of the Sectoral Determination are covered in a systematic manner, with Key Point summaries at the end of each section. Understanding Sectoral Determination 6: Private Security also contains the text of the legislation.

The overarching vision of the 2050 Africa's Integrated Maritime Strategy is to foster increased wealth creation from Africa's oceans and seas by developing a sustainable thriving blue economy in a secure and environmentally sustainable manner. The Law of the Sea: The African Union and its Member States provides a first and firm foundation for an assessment and the further development of the legal aspects of ocean governance on the continent. It is an indispensable reference for all the role players in the African Maritime Domain, including agencies and governments, business, civil society, lawyers, scientists and students.

The increasing lack of discipline in South African schools and the impact thereof is well known. In most instances, existing punitive measures do not yield the required results. Yet, schools continue to scramble to find alternative punishments that will result in a disciplined environment conducive to teaching and learning. Albert Einstein rightly said: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.”

Restorative School Discipline: The Law and Practice seeks to provide an alternative approach to discipline. However, to implement this approach, a complete mind-shift is required. This mind set requires an understanding that to discipline learners is to teach socially acceptable behaviour. The restorative approach entails moving away from an approach that merely focuses on the ill-disciplined learner to an approach that focuses on preventing disciplinary problems, changing the culture of the school and restoring the harm done to those affected by the misconduct. The restorative approach involves focusing on finding solutions to address the needs and interests of all the role-players in the school community, rather than finding suitable punishments. Thus, focusing on the best interests of every learner as well as those of educators. Restorative discipline is a value-driven approach that respects the human rights of every stakeholder and also protects, promotes and fulfils everyone’s human rights.

This book explains the restorative approach to discipline in detail. The role of every stakeholder in the implementation of this approach also receives attention. Furthermore, it highlights the social justice implications as well as the impact of discipline on the neurological functioning and development of the child.

Restorative School Discipline: The Law and Practice provides practical advice for SGB’s, educators, school social workers and other role-players, such as the Department of Basic Education, on how to implement the restorative approach to discipline. It also examines the Constitutional imperatives and the legal framework related to school discipline. This ground-breaking book will provide guidance for school administrators, practitioners and academics on this innovative school discipline practice.

The book begins with general sections on the background to the book, the genesis of the Street Law and other public legal education programmes in the United States and South Africa and their influence on other countries, as well as interactive teaching methods, before the contributions by individual countries are included. The country contributions usually begin with a brief introduction to the country and the context within which the Street Law, community outreach or legal literacy program was or will be introduced, during which presenters (a) identify the problems the program was aiming to solve; (b) the objectives of the program; (c) the target audience of the program; (d) the methodology used; (e) the challenges faced or to be faced in implementing the program; and (f) the results of the program in terms of its impact or how it will be evaluated if it is not yet operative. Thereafter, an example of a best practice lesson or lessons from the country is given. It is hoped, as stated in the 'Foreword' by South African Human Rights Commissioner, Mohamed Shafie Ameermia, that: The book can play an important role in promoting human rights across the world... [T]his Street law public legal education international best practices compendium has the potential to become a cornerstone for global human rights education programs to complement existing works on the topic. It can make a major contribution towards ensuring that the ethos and values of hard-fought fundamental rights and freedoms, internationally and nationally, are forever cherished, advanced and respected.

The purpose of Niche Tourism is to provide students with foundational insight and practical understanding of the various types of niche tourism sectors within southern Africa. Each of these uniquely established niche tourism sectors contributes towards the development of the southern African tourism product and service offering and attracts large volumes of tourists annually to southern Africa.

Niche tourism has grown and expanded into various formats over the past few years. Within southern Africa there are unique tourism establishments that showcase how these niche tourism establishments contribute towards growing the economy, uplifting local communities, and conserving the natural and cultural heritage of southern Africa.

The tourism industry in southern Africa offers various entrepreneurial opportunities for tourism graduates. The aim of this textbook is to provide students with a strong theoretical foundation on the respective niche tourism segments supported with current practical examples of how these niche tourism sectors operate, to enable graduates to establish their own niche tourism establishments. In doing so, graduates would be able to not only contribute towards the regional economy of southern Africa but also enable the resolution of socio-cultural challenges whilst conserving and protecting both the natural and cultural heritage of southern Africa.

The book equips the busy practitioner confronted with an unruly witness with the tools to formulate a cogent and legally sound argument, at short notice, as to why a particular piece of testimony should be excluded.

The opponent will similarly be assisted in dealing with the objection in a helpful and lucid manner.

The first volume, a legal humour edited by Professor Kahn, Law, Life and Laughter published in 1991 was the subject of many favourable reviews. It went through three impressions, was sold out years ago and today is a collector's item. This second melange of legal humour and piquant revelations of personalities in the law of Southern Africa is almost entirely new, containing nothing that appeared in the first volume except a number of brilliant caricatures of which the temptation to reproduce was irresistible.

This edition of Kernick's Administration of estates and drafting of wills follows the same approach that has made it, for nearly thirty years, so indispensable to busy legal practitioners and candidate attorneys. It sets out, in chronological order, the steps to be followed in administering deceased estates, of both residents and non-residents. In addition, the effects of the Moseneke and Bhe cases and the establishment of service points are dealt with in this edition. Forms, standard documents and specimen letters have also been updated.

The third edition of Bail provides a critical discussion of past and current bail law, including the impact of the Constitution on statutory interpretation and practice.

Where the law remains unclear – often as a result of divergent High Court decisions – the author provides guidelines to the practitioner and the lower courts alike. He makes concrete suggestions, where necessary, on the application of the law in a setting where tension between the liberty of the individual and the troubling crime rate calls for a measured and practical approach.

This edition features extensive quotations from the authorities, with English translations of Afrikaans judgments. The book also includes an invaluable ‘Quickfinder’ section in which the most important bail procedures are set out in a clear, concise and easily accessible format. Notice of motion templates are also provided.

In this, the third edition of Bail, the author provides a critical discussion of past and current bail law, including the impact of the Constitution on statutory interpretation and practice.

Muslim Personal Law in South Africa: Evolution and Future Status, the first South African book on the topic of Muslim personal law, introduces readers to the debate on the awarding of unique rights to specific communities. The recognition of Muslim personal law or Muslim family law has provoked debate within and beyond the Muslim community and has attracted the attention of religious scholars, academics and lawyers. The contributors to this volume touch on constitutional issues, concerns with the application of Muslim personal law by our courts, and the conflict between supporters and opponents of the draft Bill on Muslim Marriages. The non-recognition of Muslim marriages has compelled Muslim women who have suffered the dire consequences of divorce, maintenance and custody to approach the courts for relief. If Muslim personal law were to be recognised by the state, to what extent would it protect the rights of women? Will recent judgments establish precedents that might prove to be at odds with the draft Bill? This book provides fascinating insight into the evolution and prospects of Muslim personal law in South Africa.

This title, a second edition of Currie & Klaaren's The promotion of administrative Justice Act Benchbook, is a commentary on the PAJA, written to assist the judges, magistrates, lawyers and administrators who are required to interpret and implement the Act. The aim is principally to describe the impact of the Act on the body of law that it codifies and reforms or, to put it another way, to describe the difference that the PAJA makes to administrative law. The PAJA has become the legislative foundation of the general administrative law of South Africa. Though analysis of an administrative-law issue will not end with the Act, it certainly must begin with it - with attention to and interpretation of the Act's provisions. This title therefore aims at providing the Act's interpreters with guidance on this process of interpretation, rather than to cover South African administrative law comprehensively.
